This book tells the social history of the crochet lace-making tradition in south Ulster, Ireland, when thousands of women and children, through their creative lace-making, redeemed their families from the clutches of famine and disease.
The second part of the book is aimed at the beginner to Irish Crochet, with guides to easy-to-do motifs that will introduce you to the beautiful craft of Clones Lace.
The story of Irish Crochet and its unique interpretation by the Clones lacemakers. The secrets unfold through detailed instructions, traditional motifs and patterns with the temptation to be challenged by the creative aspects of this Irish lace.
