I fell for the woman who’s in love with my brother. As a professional hockey player, there’s no shortage of women who want me. Just…not the woman I want. Because she’s in love with my older brother. Until a freak summer rainstorm means that we’re stuck together. In the mountains. With the road washed out and only one hotel room to share between us. And suddenly, all of her focus is on me. Suddenly, I’m in the most important game of my life— Trying to win Attie’s heart. This team of misfits and bad boys are going to puck you in the best possible way… Knotted Laces is a standalone, forced proximity, one bed, grumpy/sunshine, forbidden love romance with no cliffhangers and an HEA.

Handy reference of more than 400 lace-related terms (Florentine knots, lappets, spangles, reticella, honiton, Tuscan filet, etc.) plus discussions of the origin, nomenclature, dating, and development of more controversial lace forms. Over 250 illustrations depict such lovely creations as Queen Victoria's wedding veil and the bridal tulle worn by Diana, Princess of Wales.

A History of Hand-Made Lace: Dealing with the Origin of Lace, the Growth of the Great Lace Centres, the Mode of Manufacture, the Methods of Distiuguishing and the Care of Various Kinds of Lace

Lace. Its Origin and History. Originally published in 1904. Many of the earliest books on weaving, textiles and needlework, particularly those dating back to the 1900s and before, are now extremely scarce and increasingly expensive. We are republishing these classic works in affordable, high quality, modern editions, using the original text and artwork. The purpose of this book is to present to those whose relation to lace is primarily a commercial one a compendium that may, perchance, in times of doubt, serve as a practical guide. Most of these works, necessarily voluminous and replete with detail, are more for the connoisseur or dilettante than for the busy man of affairs upon whom the practical aspect of lace always forces itself.

Comprehensive, profusely illustrated book, written with charm and enthusiasm, discusses techniques of making, mending, cleaning, and caring for lace. Over 100 large photos identify scores of important laces.

This vintage book contains a comprehensive guide to lace and lace making, with information on bobbin, filet, needle-point, netting, tatting, and much more besides.

Although old, the information contained within this book is timeless, and will be of considerable utility to the modern reader.
