Dear Sharon, Go to this link; http://www.vansciverbobbinlace.com/IOLI_2013_HVSCourses.pdf Look at the second page of the class description. There are two leaves in the upper left. They are virtually the same, but have to be worked entirely differently, depending on where the pairs are entering, and their orientation in a piece, such as the piece below the two leaves that also has leaves in it. Here is a link to Milanese. https://lacenews.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/milanese_birds_detail.jpg Notice how the solid areas appear to be like a woven textile that might have been woven on a loom, except that they travel in curled ways, get wider and narrower, etc. All the time the lacemaker is trying to keep the texture looking like the warp and weft (passives and workers) are at right angles to each other.
