Crocheted Yokes & Collars - Book 1
 
by Anne Orr, edited by Kaethe Kliot
 
The lace yoke was the necessary and popular accessory of the late Victorian wardrobe, where it supported the decorative gowns and lingerie of the lady's boudoir.

The forms varied with themes extending into the cuffs, edgings and insertions of the chosen garment.

Most of the designs in this book can serve as collars as well as yokes for blouses and dresses for outdoor wear, and not confined to the privacy of the home.

Although any needlework technique was appropriate, crochet was by far the most popular choice with filet crochet the preference as evidenced by the many pattern recorded.

96 pages soft back.
