An excerpt from the German-language Ullstein needlework handbook "Ich kann Handarbeiten", edited by Mizi Donner and Carl Schnebel, covering the lace-related chapters. It teaches filet (netting) work and darning stitches on net ground, tatting (Frivolitäten/Occhi) with shuttle patterns, bobbin lace (Klöppelarbeit) including grounds, Torchon, Genoese braid lace, tape lace, guipure lace and pricking patterns, and needle lace (Reticella, flat lace, relief lace/point de Venise, tape lace). The book is heavily illustrated with stitch diagrams, pricking patterns and photographs of finished lace. It ends with a register (index), and the full contents list shows the original book also covers crochet, knitting, embroidery and other techniques.
