'Tradional Lace' Making by Sally Johanson

The flyleaf has a statement which I find quite insulting to the lacemakers
whose names we all know and who kept the craft alive so that we can now
enjoy it. Admittedly it was originally published in Sweden in 1964, but but
this is the first English edition from 1972, and some of the well-known
lacemakers of today were making lace then.

"Lacemaking, one of the oldest and most beautiful crafts, has unfortunately
almost vanished in modern times, The author, one of the few remaining
experts on lace, is largely responsible for reviving interest in this craft.
She begins by describing in full detail all the materials that you will
need - the looms, the bobbins, the diferent threads."

What looms?
