The patterns in this book are astoundingly lovely. However, I was hoping for more fundamental information on how lace works and how to design one's own lace patterns. This book doesn't serve that purpose well, though it is certainly worth looking at -- and owning, since it is quite inexpensive.

The first and second books of Modern Lace Knitting are beautiful. The lace intricate and beautiful. Most of the patterns are for doilies or other decorative accents, but they can - with the right yarn - be expanded into wearable shawls, curtains, table runners or any other lacy thing you fancy. The

language is a bit dated, but otherwise easy to figure out.

Beautiful fine lace - doilies and tablecloths mainly

A wonderful collection of old lace patterns for tablecloths, curtains, a bedspread and antimacassars.
