Harry Potter Crochet: Umbridge's Doily
Professor Umbridge may be a perfectly detestable teacher, but her pink heart-shaped doilies are adorable. Inspired by the Hogwarts professor's love of pink, these doilies are quick and easy to make, and can also be done in a larger yarn as coasters.
As a special surprise, try whipping one up for your valentine this February 14th!
Materials:
Hook size:
9 (1.40mm)
Yarn:
If you're working in doily size, use any lace-weight yarn. For a larger doily, Sugar 'n Cream yarn is perfect.
