SUMMARY- This has the usual suspects of the thread company's beginner's books- Crochet, Knitting, Tatting, and Hairpin Lace... and then they added Armenian Needlepoint Lace for good measure! There's only two pages of instruction for the Armenian Needlepoint, but it is probably enough for you to go "Huh," wonder about it and go look it up on the internet because you'd never heard of it before. The small handful of tatting patterns you get are simple and traditional - no surprises there.
