Физическое описание
1 crochet sample: cotton; good condition
This crochet edging in cream cotton has a pattern of squares and blocks and a shell edge. It came from Hearns Farm in Gallowstree Common, Oxfordshire. This type of crochet could be used to decorate the edging of shelves. The inside of vardos are as thoughtfully decorated as the outside. Shelf edging is both decorative and practical as it hides ledges to stop items falling off shelves. MERL 96/50/1
