Great-grandmothers doily:

Hi everyone! I am an intermediate crocheter and my mom just found one of my great-grandmother's doilies pressed within a book buried amongst our things. I would LOVE to re-create this pattern in some way shape or form (even similar) and I'm seeking some assistance. I'm giving it my best shot with a slightly bulkier yarn (I have some lighter-weight yarn on the way though!) but I'm stuck around the 3rd round lol! Any help at all with this undertaking would be REALLY appreciated. Any hints, ideas, similar patterns online (paid or free) I would love to hear/look at.

What I've done so far

- chain start, crocheting SC into the circle

- Round 1: *ch5, skip a stitch, sc into the next* repeat around and break off yarn

- Round 2: *1sc in the next ch space, ch3* repeat around

- Round 3: ch2, *2 cluster stitches in the next space* repeat around

And here is where I fall off the wagon. I'm not 100% sure she used a cluster stitch here because they look taller than what I did, and almost look this could be 2 rounds (1 of dc and one of something else coming up to the point). Here is an image of where I have left off and got stuck. (I realize the yarn I'm using is bulkier than what she did)

As for the next rounds or how she made this beautiful star-like pattern I'm TOTALLY LOST lol. Any help would be really really appreciated!
