A lace guide for makers and collectors; with a bibliography and five-language nomenclature, profusely illuswith halftone plates and key designs . Each leaf requires four threads, and two leaves make a spot. At thetop of the spot, where two leaves meet, one coming from the left and onefrom the right, they are cloth-stitched through each other, each pair beingused as one thread. The next right-hand pair then becomes weaver, and workstoward the right through the right-hand pair, where a pin is placed to the right, just below the top of the spot. The edge is made Winkie Pin fashion, without twisting around the pin. At the two central, side, pinholes, two otherleaves touch. The nearest pair to the incoming or approaching petal is usedas a new weaver, and exchanges with the old one which goes out into the sidepetal. A pin is placed at the base of the spot, where the two, left-hand pairsare cloth-stitched together and the two, right-hand pairs together. The pinis then closed by linen-stitching the two, inner pairs. =D 238 A LACE GUIDE FOR MAKERS AND COLLECTORS -a LINE H, COL. 16,Abruzzian Point and Flat.
