Lace Crochet is a guide to crocheting with fine thread to produce beautiful and delicate lace designs. It covers the most popular styles of crochet lace - filet crochet, motifs and Irish crochet - in depth, including history, all the techniques you'll need, traditional and modern patterns and practical projects, including framed lace motifs, delicate gloves and a bedspread. It also shows how to imitate other traditional styles of lace, such as Honiton and guipure lace, using crochet. The book gives all the basic techniques so previous experience in crochet is not necessarily required, and is illustrated with both colour photographs and easy-to-follow line diagrams and patterns. Whether you are a crocheter or a lacemaker, you'll find lots of fascinating information and inspiration in this book.
