Sinossi
Excerpt from The Ladies' Complete Guide to Crochet, Fancy Knitting, and Needlework
After these rude attempts at a first step in the arts, it is not wonderful that improvements were made, almost unconsciously, and that the innate genius that existed then as now in the female bosom found at all times some imperfect means of expression through the needle, which ended at last in those stitches, that have since been combined ia to the fabric called lace.
