Gabrielle and Avital There is an element in bobbin lace called "Venetian braid". One version of it uses 2 thick cords plus 2 thin cords. With the right hand pair one works twist twist. With the left pair one does cross cross. The end result looks like needleweaving in needle lace. This work you have shown us adds the flat gold strip held in place by the twist twist and cross cross. At least I think that is what I'm seeing in the pdf.
Very very interesting. Thank you for showing us. Lorelei - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected]. For help, write to [email protected]. Photo site: http://community.webshots.com/user/arachne2003
