[lace] Re: types of lace worked
Hi Shell and fellow Arachnids, Like many lacemakers I can do several types of lace;- bobbin (a number different types), needle, Irish and 'straight' crochet, Carrickmacross, Armenian (knotted), knitted, tambour, tatting (do not enjoy but can do it), Tennerife and embroidered laces and probably some others. Don't forget that there are many different types of bobbin lace alone; just counting them off without reference to books, papers or the Net I can think of about 40 each with its own techniques and little tricks :-) My favourites are Milanese, and mixed technique bobbin lace, needle lace and Branscombe (needle lace using machine made tape as foundation). Happy lace making Joepie in East Sussex, where it is still cold, but the sun is shining for the first time in weeks. HURRAY! -Original Message- From: Shell <. >I do have a question - how many of us do more than one form of lace? I personally have done some tatting with a bobbin, knitted lace and bobbin lace. I am still learning the needle lace and other forms. I just wonder how many of us do more than one form. - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

[lace] How many kinds od lace?
I make mainly bobbin lace, but I also tat and learned about 70 years ago, but tatting took a back seat when I discovered bobbin lace. I have made and enjoyed needlelace, and have always intended to do more, but again, I am afraid bobbin lace comes first. I can crochet and I do a lot of knitting, but I haven't tackled knitted lace. I am also a spinner, and have made lace with handspun yarn, and would like to do more of that too.

[lace] Men making lace with beards in bags
"Elizabeth Ligeti" wrote: “Somewhere I read of some old men on the continent,(6 or 7 of them, I think.) who taught lacemaking at a lace School - and their beards were so long they had them tied up in little bags to keep them out of the way of the pins!” Do take a look at Tønder in Mrs. Palliser. It has been told that a man by the name of Steenbeck from Westphalia introduced lacemaking to Tønder in 1646, and he imported the old men to teach lace. Research has shown that Steenbeck was an entrepreneur and that he very successfully avoided paying tax as a citizen of Tønder for years. This story has been much discussed and ‘disproved’ by some, it looks as if it was first published in 1758. Westphalia was not a lace area. However, somebody says they have seen that the miners in the Erzgebirge made lace with their beards in bags. I don’t find it difficult to imagine that Steenbeck imported thread from Westphalia and old men from the Erzgebirge. The other point is the problem of the date. A lacemaker found a Gold Horn in 1639, and our King Christian IV bought lace in the area several times in 1619-20. However, ‘to introduce lacemaking’ has changed its meaning, for us it is the craft becoming known, but in the 18th cent. It meant establishing an industry, and Steenbeck might well be the first major lace dealer, thanks to his knowledge of business and the old men.

Re: [lace] Re: types of lace worked
I've learned to tat but still very much the beginner. So far with bobbin lace I've made a short tape of stitch practice before my move. I've knit plenty of lace like things, but nothing of actual lace.

[lace] Types of lace worked and other needlearts
The first lace I ever did was shuttle tatting. That soon ended when I discovered that I couldn't go back and fix mistakes. One of the 'joys' of bobbin lace is that if you make a mistake you can retrolace and fix it. Much later I discovered needle tatting, and I enjoy that for Christmas snowflakes. Once had a dozen decorating the window of my law office. Great for a tiny takealong project. I also sew, embroider, cross stitch, smock. No cutwork, so that doesn't count as lace. I sew a lot, or used to. And I knit. I have been astonished but then not surprised at how many lacemakers knit. I've seen lace meetings where no one really wanted to work her pillow, and the knitting came out instead. I have made a shetland shawl as a Christening shawl for the children. Oh, and of course, bobbin lace, which I do almost every day. Torchon, Binche, Flanders, Bucks, Duchesse, Idrija, Withof. Lyn in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, USA, where when the sun is out it feels like early spring.

"I do have a question - how many of us do more than one form of lace? " Bobbin lace is my addition... and I have dabbled in many different varieties. I currently have projects going from 16th century Flanders to very modern patterns, so any type can appear on my pillows. I've also dabbled in needlelace, knotted lace. and tambour lace.

Before bobbin lace was discovered, I had done all kinds of decorative sewing including a form of freemotion lace on a machine. I also learned to crochet and embroider as a young child, and taught myself knitting as a young adult. I had to give these up for many years because of finger problems but have taken them up again recently when my fingers no longer hurt. There's a lovely knitted lace shawl on my 'to do' list. Someday.

Re: [lace] How many kinds of lace?
How many kinds of lace do I make? Well, the only kind of lace I make is Bucks point ground, and I like to make yardage. When I started, I learned to make torchon first, and still use that sometimes, such as for making Christmas decorations. In the past, I've done all sorts of needlework, from embroidery to dressmaking, and I've done all sorts of knitting, as well as some spinning and weaving. But since I developed arthritis most of these have been forbidden, since they put side-loads on my finger joints. However, thank goodness I took my small pillow in to show the physiotherapist at the hospital, and she approved bobbin lace, especially my bucks thumper bobbins which are easy to scoop up and hold using the whole hand rather than spangled midlands. (And - shhh! - once in a while I do a little knitting, because I do miss it so; but only little purses made with short fine wooden needles and dainty silk yarn.) It was too late for me when I discovered needle lace and tatting, such a pity. I've never got on with crochet - don't know why; it doesn't attract me at all.

I can't believe this! I do not have a lace project in progress! I don't know what to do with myself! I just finished a piece of Milanese, designed by Louise Colgan. I'll post this to Flickr when I can photograph it. I have a workshop with Vera Cockuyt coming up soon, where I'm going to start a Vologda piece, and another workshop in May (Tonder), so it doesn't make a lot of sense to start something and then get caught up in two other projects.

[lace] kinds of lace
Clay: your empty pillows are crying, feeling neglected and unloved. I agree with Nancy: I'd love to see more early Flemish lace. Pottenkant? Paris lace? The forgotten sisters. I agree with Maureen: bobbin lace alone can occupy several lifetimes. Add needlelace and you have several centuries. I started out sewing (grandfather was a tailor), learned crochet and knitting in my 20s. I made a 2 piece orange crocheted dress -- you could see me coming far off. Then I learned embroidery, including pulled thread work (makes holes without removing threads). Then came bobbin lace, and lace guilds. Once the guild started I wanted to learn just enough of every kind so I could understand it, its limitations and advantages. So I added tatting, took a workshop in Battenberg. Made just one little Tenerife round thing. And I've learned needlelace and Hardanger. The only kinds I expect to continue with are bobbin and needle. But I do want to learn filet lacis, and do more sol lace. Possibly embroidered tulle. I have eyesight problems and difficulties finding an optometrist who understands what I need. So bobbin lace is becoming problematic. The various embroidered kinds can be made with a magnifier clamped to my chair, so as I get older, those may take over. I think I prefer bobbin lace above all others. But needle lace gives you such freedom to design anything, anything at all. It has no limitations. You don't have to master a large number of techniques before you can design for it. All you have to do is learn the basics, and start designing. As you learn new needle lace techniques, you just add them to your designs. Lorelei - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.

Re: [lace] kinds of lace
With regard to the original question, I'm also addicted to bobbin lace. I've tried all others I know of except hairpin lace, but the only other type I really enjoy is hardanger and other lace-like embroidery--go figure! I'd like to do more needle lace but I'm hopelessly bad at it, whereas I seem to pick up different types of bobbin lace instinctively. It's much more rewarding to work on something that I feel like I'm good at and where I like both the doing of it and the results so much more. I did just buy some tatting patterns for tatted jewelry. I taught myself to tat before I was told that that was impossible, and I enjoy it okay, but it's not mesmerizing like bobbin lace. And there's always the comments we get "I'd never have the patience for that"--what I don't have the patience for is to clean my house!

Re: [lace] kinds of lace
Hi Lorelei and all I too have a problem with my left eye, which I damaged inside when I fell and broke my arm a few years ago. Therefore I often either enlarge the pattern and work in thicker thread, or where magnifying glasses. The latter especially when I go on a Bedfordshire lace course with Christine Springett. At the moment I am working on a Celtic knot - kind of in Milanese, but working it out as I go along. The first and second attempts were hopeless, but (three knocks on wood in the dutch way) so far so good.

[lace] How many kinds od lace?
My grandmother taught me to crochet - she died the week I turned 10 - and I still do more crochet lace than any other. I have made filet crochet Altar frontals and do a "box", including a small tablecloth cloth, about a metre diameter, each time a member of the extended family gets married. It was through my interest in Ecclesiastical work that I came to bobbin lace and I learned be Correspondence initially - still think Rosemary's notes, now Introduction to Lacemaking are the best learning tool. Bucks Point is something I have tried and would like to do more of. Started with Sol type motifs making a baby jacket, would to do some finer work. Would like to add some needlelace fillings so I can do something with the lengths of cord I have made to try Romanian Point. Have decided Bedfordshire and Maltese have too many tallies and Honiton is to fine. Have books on laces I will never try as I have an interest in the history and development of lace. Had the opportunity to attend a workshop by Louise Colgan who talked about a Brugge finish and a Honiton start so these books may turn out to be useful for actually doing lace. Have done one, another on my large pillow, of Eeva-Liisa's picures, and would like to do an edging for use in Church. Have suitable patterns and plans to make bobbin lace cloths for granddaughters for their Wedding boxes, they are largely torchon patterns. My focus at the moment is to find some opportunities to teach. Grandaughters we see regularly love the pretty beads on Grandma's bobbins but they are too young to teach. At the moment am preoccupied by a new Embroidery Machine - do lots of childrens' quilts, some to give to specific charities and do embroidered squares for those. It also allows me to do the quilting too. Today I am guest speaker at my Trefoil Guild (retired Guide Leaders) on the subject of Lace, so who knows, we may develop a learners group.

One of my old poems: My Sanity I've been out of sorts just lately And feeling rather flat. The weather's been appalling It's even stopped the cat. I had some jobs to finish To get entries in a Show. Ends to finish, hems to turn It all just laid me low. And then at last I realized Just what seemed out of place. I'm lace deprived - I'm starving! I need my fix of lace! All pillows stood there empty. My bobbins had no thread. There was no work in progress To keep me out of bed!

Re: [lace] kinds of lace
I have had people who do extremely complex things themselves (just not lace) come up and say that too me. A lot of times, the people who tell me that are men who do extremely complex things like chain mail or other metal work. When I point out how much patience they have for their passion, they say something about how they feel the need to throw their thing against the wall. I respond with, "I do that too! Only my needle lace will just go a few feet before fluttering to the floor. If it makes it to the tv, it won't do any damage to it. That's about the only difference between the patience I have to do this, and the patience you have to do woodworking/metal work/whatever big thing you do." :) Ob lace comment: Right now I have nothing plotted out, but have two projects I need to get done in a little over 2 weeks.

Re: [lace] Nothing on the pillow!
Oh, I have my knitting... And have a new pair of socks just started. I love toe-up, two at a time on one long circular needle! But knitting is what I do while DH watches TV... I need quiet solitude to make lace. I have a loom and sewing studio downstairs, but the area is not "pet friendly", and so neither have been used since I got my little dog. And what I'm itching to do is toss bobbins. I've concluded that a pretty little edging on the vintage roller pillow which belonged to the woman who introduced lacemaking to my town is just what I need to do. That will give me a demo pillow, which I haven't had in a while. Meanwhile, two very handsome grandsons have come to spend their Spring Break with us, and I would love to see if either of them wants to make a snake!
