Irish crochet is a type of lace that has its origin in the famine years of the 19th century in Ireland.[4] Charity groups sought to revive the economy by teaching crochet lace technique at no charge to anyone willing to learn.[citation needed] This type of lace is characterized by separately crocheted motifs, which were later assembled into a mesh background.
