Hi Sue It's a combination of (Alice's) study and (Betty Ann's) experience.
From my experience the best ID books are those by Pat Earnshaw: 'Bobbin and Needle Laces, Identification and Care' 'The Identification of Lace' and for machine lace 'Lace Machines and Machine Lace' 'How to Recognise Machine Lace' Also there are some good websites including: Lace fairy - http://www.lacefairy.com/ Marla Mallet - http://www.marlamallett.com/lace.htm Brenda
How on earth do you recognise just from looking , the different types of lace??
