A short dictionary entry defining warp-lace as lace with a warp crossed obliquely by two weft threads. It outlines the history of machine-made net, from the 1764 frame-looped net machine and the warp-frame to Heathcote's 1805 twist-net machine, and quotes Lord Lyndhurst's description of how the machine imitates pillow-made bobbin net.
