Re: [lace] Re: Rundherum
I should have mentioned, the gimp pair is given alongside 13,5 as 1 paar No. 8 So I don't think it means that. Can't follow it in the diagram either.

I suppose it means 13 or 14 pairs of bobbins and one extra bobbin with thread for a gimp (in case there is a gimp in the pattern you are talking about!). If there is no gimp . Have a nice weekend.

Could the pattern include a Venetian braid? - worked a bit like a long tally but with one worker and two passives. Or could the foot edge be worked something like a lot of machine lace edges; with one (usually thicker) passive thread that the others wrap around?

Ahhh . . . well . . . . I havent done any of the patterns either. Must confess, I had forgotten about the book and had to go a-hunting for it . . . . The patterns are very pretty, though, and Tamara professed a liking for all things Lohr, and if I remember, it was her birthday coming up ( to whatever base g) . . . .

All true, and I ain't telling the number g Since the booklet has been mentioned, I wanted to ask what 13,5 and 14,5 (paar) meant . . .?? Thirteen and a half pairs of bobbins ?? Where does the extra bobbin go ? 13 and a half pairs of bobbins is waht it says... :) But where the extra half pair goes, I have no clue; the diagrams aren't clear enough. In some laces, you'll have a mixed pair (one thick and one thin thread) in the head, to maintain a smooth but distinct line. But it's still a pair. Same's true about the mixed worker pair in some of the PG laces (like Polychrome), where one thread is a different colour than the rest. But you still hang in a *pair*, however incompatible... The only reason I can think of here is the peculiar way -- on the go -- of attaching the lace to the fabric. Perhaps the extra thread is used for that? - Tamara P Duvall Lexington, Virginia, USA Formerly of Warsaw, Poland http://lorien.emufarm.org/~tpd/ - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
