I must have missed the details of Nelleke Glansdorp's lace for a
historical costume - can someone enlighten me on what that type of
lace is called?
Early 17th century? I don't think, at that stage of lace development,
there were technique/town names attached, the way we have them now.
If you go to:
http://www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/books.html#P
and scroll down to "Parasole" you'll see a patternbook full of patterns
which share the spirit of the lace Nelleke made. Still quite simple
looking and -- often -- using but a few pairs, but enchanting from the
technical point of view and very effective.
