Bobbin Lace patterns - Animals

This means animals as opposed to plants, so it includes reptiles, birds and insects.

Some of these patterns might not be suitable for beginners. Make sure that you can do the various stitches and techniques involved before starting. Some of them were also experiments which did not, perhaps, work! The photo gives some idea as to what you can expect. You might, of course, be able to improve on my efforts!
