Just have to point out that this is a hankerchief with a crocheted edge. I grew up with doilies and they are all crocheted. Not just borders. At least according to my German mother. I still remember having to move them all to dust the furniture and the design left behind where they layed on the furniture. We had every surface covered in these and dresser scarfs. I remember my mom starching the doilies and pinning them on a board to dry. She also still has a pack of beautiful hankies in the drawer. Thanks for the memories and for working with and preserving this history no matter what we each call them. Great job
