About this work

Insert of natural-colored bobbin lace. The pattern consists of a zigzag line in a mesh ground. The solid work with which the very narrow line is realized is worked in linen stitch with openwork edges. The top and bottom edges of the strip are finished straight. The short sides are finished with a hem. The insert is from or intended for bed linen.
