I did it!!! I stuck to my original goal of designing a fun doily that used only the techniques that can be done with one shuttle and a ball thread. No fancy 2 shuttle work! There is some celtic style overlapping, but that is really not hard.
I've prepared a 4 page pattern with a file size of 2.2MB in pdf format. It contains written instructions in English, and several partial diagrams. I'm offering the pdf pattern for sale in my etsy shop.
The doily looks nice in white, but there is also a lot of possibility for color play!

very nice Marilee, I don't do a lot of doilies, but I may have to get the pattern for this one.
I agree with Fox, the textural element really makes it pop. It is a very beautiful doily.

Bravo! I love the way it looks in white, but I'm already wondering what colors would work well. Lovely work as always!
It is a very beautiful doily. Amazingly you can do them, I just wish I could design one myself.
Beautiful! How big is it and what size thread did you use?
Thanks so much for the very lovely comments, everyone!
The doily measures about 10 inches across when tatted in size 30 thread.
