I looked at the document with photos of the archeological finds and the Wordpress blog showing recreations. How beautiful. I know the Posament, as the blogger calls them, isn’t needle lace but it’s very cool. Maybe I’m imagining it but it reminded me of Celtic knots. Viking raids on Ireland started 795, from on online source. The Posament were made after that.
