Description

From the book: "This pattern clearly shows how the Lace Trellis forms a bias fabric. By alternating the two methods of making the trellis, the lace mesh is drawn first to the right and then to the left to form zigzags. Practice with this striking pattern will induce a better understanding of lace and its formation in general."
