An excerpt
Torchon, or "household" lace may be called the purest and simplest of bobbin laces. It
is applied to every purpose for which knitted and crocheted laces are adaptable. Being
woven, it will not ravel, and its strength, durability and beauty, together with the
great variety of combinations possible, render it most desirable for general use. A
mistaken notion has declared this method of lace-making difficult to learn. Instead, it
is no more so than that of knitting, or crocheting, and is quite as rapidly executed.
The work soon becomes mechanical, and is extremely fascinating. Although this little
book is designed for beginners especially, I trust all will find something of interest
and benefit in its pages. After thoroughly mastering the grounds, or "weavers" and
patterns presented, no one will have any difficulty in working from sample, the lace
pattern being furnished.

Customer Testimonials and Reviews:
Hi, I just want to tell you I received the CD today! I absolutely love your elegant packaging! I think I will get another CD to give as a gift for my best friend who is crazy about crochet! Sue H.
Dear folks at Patterns-on-CD, thank you for shipping the cd out so quickly. I am new at crocheting and I am finding the instructions very clear and easy to follow! Your CD is so easy to use. I can print out just the pages I am working on and scribble my notes on the print-out without worry. My dog chewed part of the pattern sheet I was working on, but no worries, I just print out another sheet! I am keeping the print outs in a 3 ring binder and even printed the lace images I like for the binder cover. Thank you for making this rare antique book available on CD ROM!
