A 1917 booklet compiling a directory of people across the United States interested in hand-made lace, edited by B. E. Merrill of Carnegie Institute of Technology. A short preface explains the project and its link to the Needle and Bobbin Club of New York. The alphabetical listing gives names, addresses, and roles (collector, connoisseur, maker, teacher, mender, promoter, lover) along with the lace types each person makes, such as bobbin, Cluny, Torchon, Filet, Armenian, Carrickmacross, and Italian cut-work.
