content: This lace pattern is printed on light brown thin cardboard. It is titled Smyrna Edging and copyrighted 1904. All rights reserved. Rows of dots with tiny numbers 1-49 indicate the order of making the lace. The corresponding instructions are printed in The American Lace Maker, Volume 1, pages 8-9, as Lesson No. 9. This pattern has not been used. This is the pattern that was scanned, printed and pinned to the lace pillow 2016.0048.01 to show how the equipment is used. A piece of lace was made by the threads and bobbins for illustration of bobbin lace made on the Princess Lace Loom by volunteer Karen Thompson in 2011 before the donation was brought to the Museum, as suggested by the donor.
