Selected pages from an 1890 household encyclopedia containing a chapter of written patterns for crochet and knitted lace, credited to Mrs. A. K. Stauffer. It gives row-by-row directions for edgings and insertions such as medallion, Vandyke, punnet, wheel, beaver, spider web, shell, pineapple, clover-leaf, crazy and strawberry lace, many worked on novelty braid, along with a crocheted shoulder cape, neck ruching, an afghan, and a tidy. Knitted laces for flannel skirts, tortoise shell, Tunisian, woolen and lattice lace are also included. Most patterns are accompanied by photographs of the finished lace, and the volume's title page is included.
