The Technique of Honiton Lace by Elsie Luxton
For nearly a decade, this was the only modern book on Honiton and inspired many people to take up this fine lace.

Taking the lacemaker through beginner's pieces onto flat and raised & rolled work, this book also has a good collection of filling that can be used across the lace.

Elsie's writing style is easy to read and makes this book very accessible.

What works well?

• The techniques are referenced in notes which are at the end of the book, allowing easy access to them from any of the patterns

​ Anything that we need to take into consideration?

• The working diagrams only show the order of making 
• This book is currently out of print, but is often available on from online booksellers and occasionally on eBay
