[lace] Mechlin
Hi Arachnids In 1993 I purchased a copy of Syllabus Mechelse Kant 1 by Rita Thienpondt intending to try my hand. However several books got in the way and Iâm only now having the time to play. I also have Eisblumen by Ulrike Voelcker. Are there any more books, leaflets or articles on the techniques for making Mecklin lace? At the moment Iâm having fun trying to get the ground even, but when I move on I will need to understand how the techniques work as I have no patience following working diagrams. The more information I have the greater is my chance of success. Looking forward to your answers Alex - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachne.modera...@gmail.com.

Alex Rita Thienpondt did write a 2nd set of patterns, called De sierlijkheid van de Mechelse Kant, published 2002. It appears to be self published, but is the same format as her first book. Edgings, a few corners, several small motifs. I have all 3 but doubt I will actually learn these. I'm more interested in Binche and Paris. But I do like to be aware of all the forms.
