[lace] Russian Tape Lace

2007-04-27 Thread beth
One book which I don't think has been mentioned is Bridget Cook's "Russian 
Lace Making", which has an introductory section explaining the techniques 
followed by plenty of patterns. The instructions look fairly clear and 
comprehensive (I have a copy but have never got round to using it).

Anyone know whether it's in print at the moment?

more - which shouldn't be out so far north until well into next month.

[lace] Russian tape lace

2006-01-18 Thread Noelene & Bill Lafferty
Late last year I did a class in Russian tape lace with Nadine Pauwels
when she was visiting Australia.  Among the lace pieces she brought
for display, were some beautiful tape lace mats including a circular
one about 2 ft (80 cm) in diameter and some long rectangular mats.

Does anyone know what type of pillow these are made on, and how
they are made?   Are they constantly taken off the pillow and repinned,
and if so, is the pricking one large one or several small ones like a
jigsaw puzzle?

Pictures of the mats are included on the website

2006-01-21 Thread Miriam
When I started off with bobbin lace I worked on a bolster pillow . 
When the design was too big we just went around the pillow another 
time, pinning the  layer over the pervious one. We kind of rolled the 
pattern and the lace over and over until the  pattern was done.

[lace] Russian Tape Lace

2006-01-22 Thread A Thompson
About five years ago I went on a Waterways of Russia tour, a delightful
journey in a boat gliding along the canals, rivers and lakes that joined
Moscow to St. Petersburg.  I was with my dear friend Pat, who sadly died a
couple of years ago.  I remember listening to the nightingales singing in the
birch trees along the banks as the midnight sun still shone long after 11 pm.

In the north we stopped at the lakeside in the Vologda region and were lucky
to see the lace-workers, even in the the cold climate, outide working at their
bolster pillows which were set with the long side at the front and were worked
round as the pattern progressed.  I recall this thread being discused a while
ago and remember sending Lori some photos of the lace workers and the actual
tape lace I purchased from them, on her web-site.  I bought a mat, a butterfly
and an angel.  I used the angel pattrn for my Romanian Point Lace book and
there are similar designs in a recent book on lace angels.

Does this lace ever use a pivot pin?  Or are all turns made like regular tape 
lace?  I've got a very tight curve.  Many thanks for any suggestions.

Thanks for your words of encouragement!  The pivot pin seemed like the obvious 
technique to use, but I was reluctant because I don't recall ever seeing it 
used in samples of the lace.  The only book I own is Vologda but I don't have 
it with me now so can't check.  Makes me wonder what technique they 
traditionally used if pivot pin is not part of their vocabulary.  With only six 
pairs, one of which is the gimp, there weren't enough threads to work multiple 
temporary pins as in Idrija.  So--pivot pin it is!  Thanks for helping!

2017-01-06 Thread Susan
Thank you all for solving my problem!  After viewing Lorelei's diagrams & pg 
147 of Practical Skills, I understand what tripped me up.  I had Idrija on the 
brain--where each successive passive is used as the weaver following a 
temporary pin.  That didn't work with 6 prs in which one pair was gimp.  The 
Lorelei & Cook diagrams are like the turns used for the MJ salamandre & I 
failed to recognize the connection.  Tunnel vision here!  Malvary, I do like 
your ten stick idea as it would be quick to work & perhaps less likely that I  
would get confused about what pair to use next.  Thanks for saving me from 
myself ladies!   Sincerely , Susan Hottle USA

[lace] Russian tape lace book

2009-11-12 Thread A . González
Hello all.

I am very interested in Russian bobbin lace, and have seen a book on
Vologda's grounds. The book is
*The Technique of Vologda Lace*, by Vera Cockuyt.  As I haven't seen the
book, I would like to have some references before buying it. Do any of you
have the book or know it? I would like to know if it includes diagrams,
explanations, pictures, patterns, etc. Any information is welcome.

Greetings from

Antje, in Spain.

I have seen large mats done both on a large pillow and by using just a segment
(slightly over 1 repeat) on a smaller pillow.  Sometimes the pricking itself
might determine how one did it.

Using a pricking segment would not be much different than 'moving up' on
yardage pieces.  Well, maybe a few more pins/holes to line up.

I don't know for sure but I think such mats could  be made on bolster
pillows, which give more leverage on making the bigger pieces. You can
have quite a long, round bolster, and/or you can move the pattern
about as required. Or - you build on the lace in units or piecework.

Hello Noelene,
A teacher of mine who knew some ladies from Wologda exolained it to me. 
They have there very long and big rolls bigger then those from 
Erzgebirge. And on those big lace-pieces are two or more lacers working 
at the same time.

Hope this helps.

Yes, Russian tape lace uses a pivot pin. There are several ways of doing
fudge stitches to help you get around a very tight curve. Sometimes called
"turning stitches". The one that appears in the DMC book on tape lace is the
one I use most, and I describe it on my website.
http://lynxlace.com/learningbobbinlace-basics.html#turningstitch 

One of these days I'm going to put up my diagrams of the other methods that
I know of.

What I like to do if it is a tight turn is to work to the inside of the curve, 
do one twist then leave that pair -no pin.  **Pick up the last passive pair you 
worked through and use it as the worker out to the edge and back to the middle 
going through all pairs, one twist on the worker.  Repeat from ** until you are 
round your curve.  This similar to ten stick worked in Honiton. This will not 
work if you are using lots of colours
