Decorative Braids for Milanese Lace (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781802271478)

The two books of Milanese Braids, 'Milanese Lace: An Introduction' and 'New Braids and Designs in Milanese Lace', both by Read and Kincaid (1988; 1994), have long been out of print. To make the braids available to a new audience, we reproduce them here, together with about forty new braids that were not included in earlier books. The braids are drawn from both Milanese and other continental braid-type laces. This is intended to be a reference book and it is hoped that it will stimulate creativity and encourage lace makers to develop new designs for modern use.
