An intern at the museum is attempting to make a patch for a piece of 
chantilly. Ideally such a thing should be not noticeable, yet fully reversible.
The intern has actually done a very good job, making a drawing of the shape 
of the missing piece and making something like a point ground filling of that 
shape using a photocopy of the ground as a pattern. She apparently has had some 
lace instruction. (She is European.) One thing she is not satisfied with is 
the ending of the threads. The patch is an odd shape, like a jigsaw puzzle 
piece. On the bottom of the patch at the ending, she knotted the threads together, 
tying three knots. It is not bad, really. But can anyone think of a better 
way to do this so that the patch will not have a series of knots that draw 
attention to themselves.
