Hi Arachnids,
If you look under the pattern there is a short description in Dutch. It
reads;-
DOWNLOAD THE PATTERN IN PDF FORMAT
Materials;-
1 round shoe lace 45 to 65 cm long
bead with large hole
worker (or weaver) pair in DMC fil a Dentelle 80 of 6xthe length of the shoe
lace
10 to 20 pairs of passives, depending on the thickness of the shoe lace.
Half of these should be thick thread i.e. Madeira Glamour; Decor
(dubbled up); or Gold Rush.
The othe half in thin threads such as ;Venne Creafil; Madeira
Metallic; DMC Fil a Dentelle 80; Supertwist
METHOD;
Hang the bobbins in pairs on 1 pin. Pin the shoe lace in place with a strong
pin -leave this pin as long as possible-. Pins are placed on the left only,
about 0.5 cm (just under quarter inch) apart. Use strips of squared paper
(maths paper) for pricking.
Work in whole stitch from left to right. Keep the shoe lace on top of the
work.
Lay the worker over the work to the left. Pin up between pair 1 (worker) and
2 on (the left) and whole stitch again from left to right.
The pins are pushed down a.s.a.p. and the right hand pair is regularly
pulled a little to the left.
Repeat until the desired length is worked. The push the bead onto the cord.
Fasten the ends together, if required with a fastener (literally a small
lock). (you could also use a hook eye or a small button loop, but it
does not say that).
I hope that my little translation will help you.
Happy lace making,
Joepie in East Sussex, UK

I have done a computer translation and it's not clear how to make this.
Is there anyone that has made this Halssieraad, that would be willing to
explain how it's done?
