About this work
Strip of natural-colored bobbin lace. The pattern consists of three rows of squares. In each row the squares are alternately made in linen stitch with cutouts that make a horizontal and vertical line and with braids that make a grid of a square with a cross through it. The top side is finished straight, with a picot edge. Along the underside, half-oval scallops are made with braids around a large snowflake, provided with picots.
