Mandalay Medallions







Mandalay Medallions
, by Norah Gaughan

from Interweave Knits Spring 2003
. It took8 skeins of Reynolds Mandalay silk. When I first laid eyes on this pattern, I told myself it was time to learn how to crochet.... The photo doesn't show the bottom border, to which I added an extra row of single crochet before the scallops to make it lie flatter. I wish I had added another row still, as the border has a tendency to curl a bit. I loved doing the scalloped edge.
