Lacemaking was once a widespread cottage industry; at one time even men made lace because they earned more than they could working in the fields. Although those days have gone and no one in England can make a living from it, as a few women on he Continent still manage to do, it is regaining popularity as a hobby, assisted by the general revival of interest in crafts, bygones and local history. This book describes and illustrates different varieties of lace and the tools used in the making of it, not only from England, but also from France and Belgium, and explains some of the terms peculiar to the craft. A number of pages are devoted to lace bobbins, often highly decorated and sometimes inscribed with names or mottoes, usually concerned with the joys and sorrows of love, though occasionally with contemporary events or famous people.
