Lorelei, you ask for comments on the NL web page.
I have only one comment - besides saying that you have done a good job with
it.

The web page that tells you how to do reticella has beaut diagrams - very
nice, and very clear, but they have one great fault!
The Diagram C, and further on - 'Working the Pattern' diagrams, all show the
needle going into the couching stitch. This would be a disaster, as when the
couching stitches are cut away and pulled out, (when you release the
finished NL from the pad) what would hold the lace together? -!!!
The needle should be shown going between the 2 Trace threads (cordonet) -
the foundation threads of the NL.

I have commented on these diagrams before - when I first found them.  Anyone
trying to make NL from these would be SO disappointed when they finished
that it could put them off for life!

Other than this, I think you have covered it well.
