Re: [lace] Carmen's Lace
I was looking at her website and could not see the threads you referred to. I looked at the photo in flickr and see the cut threads you are referring to.  I usually leave my ends a lot longer when I throw back pairs. On the interior edge next to the clothwork it looks like she removes most of the pins but the pinholes are clearly marked on the pricking that has no work on it yet.  Janice Janice Blair Murrieta, CA, jblace.com On Saturday, October 9, 2021, 07:36:34 PM PDT, Karisse Moore wrote: Janice, I put a picture of the handkerchief edging up on flicker. it is in the Photo stream, I think about one or two in.

[lace] Carmen's lace
Hi Karisse, The clothwork in RetFi is very dense. Fine cotton thread pairs are added and removed as needed to achieve the density that the lacemaker wants. When the threads are packed in, the clothwork may push up to the gimp making the holes less obvious. Also, sometimes the pinholes lie outside the gimp which allows the clothwork to lie closer to the gimp. And maybe Carmen used very fine pins that don't leave a large hole when removed?

[lace] Carmen's Lace
I have been looking at pictures of the lace that Carmen has been making. Look on the flicker account and you will see a handkerchief edging she is making. By the way she is done with it and I am looking forward to seeing it off the pillow. It is Ret-Fi lace that is very similar to Bucks Point lace.Here is my question to you all. When you look at the work you can not see any pin holes on either the inside or outside of the whole and half stitch work. How in the world does she do that? I know that she adds a lot of bobbins when she does the whole and half stitch parts of the lace because you can see all the threads that she has cut the bobbins off of coming out of the pins. I know how to do Bucks Point and I know how to do the net, the whole stitch, the half stitch but how does she make those without pinholes in the work?Karisse - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
