Turquoise Mandala Doily Part 2
designed by Kim Guzman © June 2015
Please read my Terms of Use
Technique: Regular Crochet
Finished size
17″ across (after Part 2)
Materials
- Valley Yarns 5/2 mercerized cotton, 2194 algiers blue (A), 3853 tea rose (B), 6319 blue iris (C), 1205 banana (D)
- Suggested hook: E-4 (3.5mm)
- Needle (for weaving ends)
Notes
Approx. yardage is as follows: 240 yds (A), 175 yds (B), 100 yds (C), 100 yds (D). All yardage amounts are estimates only.
This project has only been tested in size 5 cotton thread. Please feel free to try it with any thread/yarn you like, but I’m unsure of how different weights/fibers will react and can’t guarantee anything. Using a different material will mean different yardages will be required. Update: I have attempted this pattern with Red Heart Super Saver and can’t even get past round 4 without making adjustments. It can be done, but adjustments in count may definitely be required.
Due to popularity, I am making this project available as soon as I can, but it means that I will have to make it available in parts. I am still working on this design and hope to add more to it as I want it to fit my dining room table. I’m just a bit stumped on how to complete the next rounds the way I want them. If I continue, there will be a Part 3. You will want to follow me on social media or subscribe to my blog if you would like to be notified when there is more available.

Note: This completes the project as pictured. When I am able to complete the project, I will post part 3. The photo at the top of this page goes through round 28 and the instructions are provided above. You do not need anything more in order to create what is in the photo. Yes, I would like to continue working on this project, but I can’t provide any instructions for what I haven’t done. I do not know when I will be able to continue working on this project. This is all I have right now.
