BOBBINET

Webster's 1913 Dictionary
 
 Definition: 
\Bob`bi*net"\, n. [Bobbin + net.]
A kind of cotton lace which is wrought by machines, and not
by hand. [Sometimes written {bobbin net}.]
      The English machine-made net is now confined to point
      net, warp net, and bobbin net, so called from the
      peculiar construction of the machines by which they are
      produced.                                --Tomlinsom.
