I have made this doily with Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing tread in yellow (Col. 688)and my 0,35mm TULIP hook. It measures 38,5 cm (15,2 inch) in diameters

I like a challenge like crocheting picots with the black Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread. This pattern (called "pink whirlpool centrepiece") has 53 rounds and each doily measures 21 cm (8,2 inch) in diameters.

I have made my smallest (16 rounds measure 11,5 cm) and my biggest (59 rounds measure 45 cm) doily from the Japanese Pinapple Lace book. For both I have used the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread in cream and my 0,35mm TULIP hook.

Now I have made this lovely pattern from a Japanese Pineapple Lace book in red and blocked it on top of the cream one made a few weeks ago. I think my crochet work has a "machine made caracter".

As usual I have used the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread and a 0,35mm TULIP hook.

Oh, yes, for comparison reasons, I would love to try the size 200 crochet thread with my two patterns.

I never had to wash any doily which I made! Even the "big" table centers. Now I am just about to finish a black Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread doily. I have to admit that it is quite difficult to work with the black thread as you need so much light. Made a nice pic a few days ago.

I would be ready to try anything finer than 200. I have a good comparison for crochet thread 150 (J&P COATS) to my usually used Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread.

I never had a chance to get a crochet thread size 200. I would think it equals the size of the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread which comes in so many colors all over the world. Perhaps you could try to work with the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread and compare it to your 200 crochet thead. By the way I am usig a TULIP hook size 0,35mm.

I have used the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread and a 0,35mm TULIP hook.

In this picture you have the white J&P COATS crochet thread and the cream Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread. For both I have used a 0,35mm TULIP hook.

Thank you, Debbie! I had the chance to crochet with J&P COATS thread size 150 and compare it to the Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread. The sewing thread is much thinner. I am going to post another example.

Again I entered three of my Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread doilies at the Royal Easter Show in Sydney and this time I was awarded "Highly Commended".

Good news from the Royal Easter Show in Sydney. My Gütermann C Ne 50 sewing thread white/blue table center has won Standard of Excellence, first prize and best exhibit in Class. Here is a pic from the table center and from the display at the Show.
