Traditionally a lacemaker will give a lace edged handkerchief as a wedding present and it is folded into a bonnet for her baby’s christening. Alternatively is given folded at a baby’s christening and then becomes her wedding handkerchief, if the baby is a girl, or his bride’s wedding handkerchief if the baby is a boy
