From the book: "This pattern is a somewhat more sophisticated version of the alternating-diagonal motif seen in such patterns as Marriage Lines and Herringbone Lace. Like many Spanish laces, this one employs decreases and yarn-overs on both sides of the fabric, which gives the more delicate effect of openings divided by a single strand instead of two twisted strands. Also, the decreases form a more obvious feature of the design on the surface of the fabric, as in Traveling Vine, etc."Collection
