An excerpt:
"Baby Irish Crochet Lace is worked as the other but it is finer. Finer thread is used and round the sprigs which are smaller, rows of stitches with picots are usually worked instead of the filling.
Baby Irish Lace has always been very much in vogue for trimming babies and children's garments and also lingerie. It is also very effective for trimming blouses and can be mixed with other kinds of lace or with embroidery."
