A German-language instruction manual on bobbin lace worked in shapes (Brugge, Brussels, Honiton style lace), written for beginners with no prior knowledge. It begins with a short history of lace and a list of equipment (pillow, bobbins, thread, pins, pricking), then moves through numbered practice exercises in whole stitch and half stitch, leaves, bows, rings, flowers and a Bruges collar. Later chapters cover filling stitches and net grounds (moss ground, spiderweb, honeycomb, tulle), a curtain panel, butterflies and a garniture piece. It is illustrated with photographs and pricking diagrams (Abb.), and the final pages carry publisher advertisements.
