It gives shuttle-and-pin instructions with cotton and pin sizes for a round d'oyley or head-dress, Œillet, Pearl, Gymp and Vandyke edgings, a Corfu lace antimacassar with knotted joining, Greek lace trimming, a Vandyke lappet or cravate, and a beaded Parisian gymp trimming. A closing section explains knotting, the lace wheel and the straight thread.
