Hello Robin
That pannomia lace is neat.
When you say crocheted braids, do you mean the lines around each area,
like Romanian point lace? That's very interesting that it's found in
Hungary, also.
No - the crochet bit is the braids that form the container holding the
flowers and the curly bits to either side of it. All the needlelace
fillings are outlined with a cordonnet thread. I've added a detail
photo to the page with the larger image, but it's a big file (376Kb) so
you really need broadband.

The piece of Pannomia lace shown in the Earnshaw book has
proportionally more crochet and less of the spider webs than the Lace
Guild piece.
