<p>The pattern is in the book "Featuring 14 New Pineapple Designs" from Clark's O.N.T. J. & P. Coats, book no. 230 issued in 1946. Note the price printed on the book - 10 cents! The pattern is doily no. 7768-A and is on page 6 of the pattern book. The book is bent back to this page, for easy access while making the doilies.</p>]]>
These two doilies made in a pinwheel design were likely made by my great-grandmother, Alvina Billig, and I'm guessing they date from the 1930s - 1940s. The smaller one is mainly tan with a white border and measures 6.5 inchess across. The larger doily is white, made with a thicker crochet thread, and measures 8.25" across.]]>
