An excellent book for those who wish to take up needlepoint lace or those who wish to put their grasp of the basics on to a sound footing.
After a section on equipment, there are detailed instructions for learning the basic stitches by making a simple daisy motif and several variations. The reader is taken through a further selection of stitches by working a sampler project. Sections on decorative finishes and design, colour and threads follow.
Many clear working diagrams and black and white photographs.
