Boasting worldwide sales of over 10,000 copies, this seminal guide revitalizes the age-old art of lacemaking and offers a contemporary introduction to this textile art from the 16th century.
Created for modern hobbyists, craft enthusiasts, instructors, and educators, artist and lace historian Rosemary Shepard condenses her course from the Australian Lace Guild, breaking down the entire process of bobbin lacemaking from start to finish. Through a series of exercises and readings, Shepard walks the reader through the necessary equipment and materials needed to begin lacemaking, progressing to specialty stitches like the Torchon Ground and Half-Stitch Diamonds.
