Is it a button?
A coaster for a shot glass?
Just a cute round THING?
NOPE! Readers, for this week's Lace Doodle Thursday, we have a LID! For a BOX!
I'm still working on the, well, BOX part of this teeny tiny keepsake. I went ahead and used a size 10 crochet cotton and upped my usual crochet hook size to 1.25 mm, which makes for a MUCH stiffer end result that doesn't require starching!
