Hi Lacemakers, Although I have done quite a bit of bucks point I have a question regarding pattern 1`7 Muriel, page 42 in A Visual Introduction to Buckspoint Lace by Geraldine Stott. I thought this would be so simple, especially as it has a good diagram and a written explanation. My question is right at the beginning. It shows 3 lots of 2 pairs on the top false picot. 2 pairs work to the right and 2 pairs to the left through the other false picot threads on either side but there is no explanation of what happens to the last 2 pairs. The diagram does not show that pair at all. Has anyone done this pattern and knows what to do with them? Adding up the pairs shown does come to the correct number of 38 pairs, so they must be used somewhere. Am I right to assume that they become extra passives going around the perimeter of the circle?
