This lace is of a conventional Italian pattern, and is filled in with
the Italian lace and ground-stitches, and Sorrento bars. The lower edge
is very daintily completed with a button-hole effect. The design is
simple, elegant, and popular, and may be wrought in Battenburg or the
finer braids, and in any width desired, the braid selected and the width
decided upon determining the use to which the lace shall be put.
