Irish Crochet Lace

This handbook of Irish crochet lace patterns starts with how to make the forms that distinguish it -- the charming wheels, flowers, fans, buds, tendrils and clusters -- and how to make the backgrounds, from the simple, plain mesh, to the more complicated styles. Projects include: Simple and advanced backgrounds and motifs, medallions, narrow and wide edgings and insertions, doilies, bolero, chair set, tea cozy, lunch set, collar, gloves, baby set, purse, and more.
