I presume that Belgian colour code is the one used by the Kantcentrum in Bruges. The "standard" colour coding for BL working diagrams is: purple for cloth stitch CTC red for cloth & twist CTCT green for half stitch CT Yellow for a single thread (gimp or weaver in a tally) but a lot of books use black as it's easier to see. The coloured diagrams in Bridget Cook's workbook are single threads, not pairs, and she just used a mix of red and blue as she felt best highlighted the stitches being described > 2.

To me a heart is designed to be worn/displayed, but not necessarily worked, with the point going down. A chevron can point in any direction. Other than that they are the same in Torchon lace.

Re: [lace] Belgian Color Code
Hello Delores. Most recent books follow the Belgian Colour code, although it doesn't say it is the Belgian one. The colours used are: Cloth stitch (CTC): violet Whole st. (TCTC): red Half St. (TC): green Braid: blue Gimp: yellow Sometimes Dieppe (TTC pin TC) is represented by orange, instead of green and a small line of the extra twist. And honeycomb in brown. I hope this answers your question 1. Best regards from Antje, in Spain. ___ *"Hasta la más larga caminata empieza por un pequeño paso".

Re: [lace] Belgian Color Code
It may well be they are one and the same thing, but personally, I would say a chevron is deeper and a heart is more heart shaped like a chopping a corner out of one side of a diamond.

[lace] Belgian Color Code
I have two questions. 1. I have color codes in several of my books but have failed to find any listed as the Belgian Color Code. Could someone list them for me? 2. In Torchon Lace, what is the difference between a chevron and a heart? They appear to be the same so I thought the terms were interchangeable. Thanks for your help.
