Thanks for posting the link Annette - that's gorgeous, and I love the
simplicity of just the needle and thread creating the lace - no pillow, no
laying a trace etc etc. Do you know of any books with Puncetto technique
details?

The best reference is the Anchor Manual of Needlework Chapter 11. I bought a
book in Italy but it is in Italian and I think it is out of print.
Manuale del puncetto valsesiano by Angela Petterino Camaschella. 
Valsesia Editrice, Borgosesia 1992. No ISBN.

If you google Puncetto you will also find some good sites.

Enjoy

Dear Annette and spiders --  I have an edition of the Anchor Manual 
that was published in 1974 by Charles Branford Co. of Massachusetts 
and is of course in English. Its chapter XXI is devoted to puncetto 
and it is drop-dead gorgeous! I should think Amazon or B&N or one of 
those online booksellers could find one.

Hi All,

Watched the clip off Utube via the link Annette posted, yes it is lovely.

Knew I had it in one of the books in my Library - found it on P 94 of the 
Golden Hands series, think I was collecting them in the '80s.


The knots are also used in Knotted Needle lace, as in Elena Dickson's book.  
Interesting to watch, it is the Mediterranean Knotted Needle Lace that I 
have done some of.  If the basic cross, twist, cross works for many types of 
bobbin lace, why not the same knots for different disciplines in Knotted 
Lace?

Sorry all, it is chapter 21 not 11. I wrote in a hurry.
Also, the Anchor manual is a great book and readily available. It has
recently undergone another reprint in paperback.
Regards
Annette Meldrum
