Mom's Rose Pineapple Doily

My third doily: this is Mom holding up the rose-colored doily I made her for Christmas 1998. Or part of it anyway. I couldn't think of any boxes I had to wrap it in, and I really wanted something sturdy enough. I can't remember if CC suggested it, or if I thought of the idea of using an album cover as the "box" (it fit perfectly inside). This is from an issue of Decorative Crochet.
