I know the question was at 30 June but I was not with my desktop and no one could helpme with Arachne address and I want to share my view about Teneriffe.
T tried to reply by Devon email but it not appear, so. I want to say that there are researchers that use for Teneriffe Lace a special category. Embroidered lace (encaje bordado):.when we make the pattern of lace with a needle in a basis or warp. We can use a net, like filet, or a radial warp, like for for nanduti, soles de maracaibo, tenerife lace, rosetas canarias ... Carolina used the expression " lace craft". I was searching such kind of expression. Since few years I have contact with Teneriffe Lace and I think that it becomes just this : a needlelace craft. At the olds XIX and begin of XX century it was not, but the time goes and forgetfullness happened and Teneriffe Lace becomes a handcraft or a needlelace craft. And is like a lace craft ( good, beautifull and so on ... or not) that people works this technique textile nowadays. Teneriffe Lace I make is like it was early XX century, therefore draws attention. Thanks, Carolina also for the "rule" or comprehension that to be lace a minimum of 50% of threads have to be drawn out.
