A 1980 instruction book on Teneriffe lace, a needle-made lace of radiating web threads stretched over a wheel of pins and embroidered into medallions. It traces the history from drawn thread work to Paraguayan ñanduti and Mexican and Tenerife examples, then covers tools, a first simple medallion, stitches, edgings, plans, new shapes and webs, modern developments (daisy winder, multi-needle, flower loom), applications, and alternative wheels. Many diagrams and photographs, wheel plans in an appendix, a supplier list and bibliography are included.
