A single-page article from Modern Priscilla pairing a short appeal about Armenian refugee girls in America with a lesson in Armenian needlepoint lace by Nouvart Tashjian. It explains the Armenian knot worked with a sewing needle and fine thread, with row-by-row directions for five edgings (Figs. 3-7) suited to handkerchiefs, underwear and doilies. Line diagrams show the knotting from right to left and left to right, and small lace swatches illustrate the edgings.
