Vintage 1937

There's nothing like lace for dressing up a room—and nothing like this multi-starred spread for fascinating crochet that nets you loveliness for a lifetime!  The star, in popcorn stitch, is set off by the lacy mesh—an effective contrast. Done “piece-meal” you'll find you will know this nine-inch medallion by heart very quickly.
