I'm hoping that someone out there can direct me to the proper group or site. A dear friend in Scotland is trying to find out the history of broomstick lace aka jiffy lace or peacock's eye lace for an article she is writing for a class. I know it is done with a crochet hook and a very thick dowel or knitting needle, but can't seem to really find out anytlhing more. Books in my personal library has no mention. I do have some patterns for it, but nothing else.
Thanks for any help you can give.
