This is currently something I'm working on. It's pretty fast and easy, but it can be a little fiddly when making the loops. To learn how to make the loops click here, and to join it into a circle click here (however, skip the first part about gathering the first side of loops - you don't need to do that for this pattern).
I'm currently making this in a fuchsia size 80 tatting cotton, and I'm using a British size 5 (1.4mm) steel hook with a short handle. It's pretty easy, and my first Hairpin piece. I have an Aero 3/4" hairpin lace loom (looks similar to the metal knitting needles), but you can get adjustable looms.

Breton Doyley
Requires white, No. 80 crochet cotton, a crochet hook suitable to work, and padding cord.
Does requiring having a padding cord make this a form of Irish crochet? Please let me know in the comments.

Semco Rose Filet Doyley
Please note:
21st Row. -- 1 h. on each h.
The Doyley is now worked off in sections to form scalloped edge as follows: -- Commence at tr. in line with second h. from rose. * 4 h, cramp 3 h. on next 2 h., 4 h., turn 1 h. on each h., end off, miss 10 h. of 21st. Row. Repeat from *.
EDGE -- 3 d.c. into each h., working 5 ch. after every second d.c. of every second h. to form a picot.
I am not sure if this is in American crocheting terms, or British. I am assuming British however, because Madame Weigel's Journal Of Fashion was an Australian publication (and we generally use British crocheting terms. Or at least, used to.) Please see the link here.
