  ©Sadia's Designs-Tambour Lace II (Crochet Lace)
Tambour lace in general came from the Orient where a round frame, or Tambour (like a drum) was held between the knees and a type of muslin fabric was stretched over the tambour and the stitches were formed with needle and thread on the muslin.
Tambour is made with a fine hook which pierces the fabric or net, picks up a thread from behind and draws the loop to the front.
Tambour Lace II is based upon the similar process only the netting or fabric is eliminated.

Tambour lace was brought to Coggeshall in about 1812 by M. Drago, a Frenchman who had two daughters.

 Clan Iain Abrach ~ MacIain
Tambour Embroidery was widely used to create a single, continuous chain stitch on either a piece of fabric or a net ground, depending on the time period.
Lace was a traded commodity at the time and business was conducted on a "lace standard" as well as "gold standard".
Lace making was a guild business and not a cottage industry, although lace makers worked in cattle barns to keep warm, all materials used were weighed by the guild and once the lace was finished, it and all scraps had to match the starting weight.
