Meredith established the Adelaide Industrial School in Cork for the teaching of crochet and the industry spread rapidly throughout the south of Ireland. Convents in the area were mainly responsible for teaching the work and for organizing the sale of finished pieces.
She discovered that Spanish needle lace, which was similar in appearance to the exquisite Venetian needlepoint lace, could be adapted to the crochet hook and was much faster. A seven inch piece of lace could be crocheted in about twenty hours, whereas the same piece would take at least hours to sew with a needle. It was regarded by the couture profession in the early years of this century as the true Irish lace.
The inventor of the style of crochet which is the subject of Irish Crochet Lace was Mademoiselle Riego de la Blanchardaire, who discovered that a type of Spanish Needlepoint could effectively be adapted to Irish materials. Crochet-making was soon adopted by many other centres throughout the country. In the years immediately after the famine, crochet became a practical subject in the curriculum of convent schools.
