SUMMARY- This booklet was published the same period in which so many notable designers were vying for places in American women's workbaskets. This booklet was exclusively filet crochet. I think Ms. Brown gave the Dexter Yarn Company honest effort in providing a booklet women would be pleased to work from. She also provided tatting designs for the company, but none of them are in this book.
Dexter Yarn Company has a website describing its history:
