In a discussion about how to attract young people to lacemaking, Devon came
up with the following description which might be the one you wanted.
Modern open warp weaving. Using two simple weaving movements students will
experience the freedom to design complex woven structures without the
limitations imposed by a loom. Based on renaissance techniques, open
warp weaving
allows the student to weave in any shape, in any direction, even three
dimensionally with an almost unlimited range of textural and
patterning techniques.
Students may choose to work this exciting fiber art in color or to
explore the
full range of contrasting patterns of positive and negative space which find
their best expression in monochrome.

Dear spiders,
Some time ago (during a discussion about demonstrating?) someone wrote a very
clever description of lacemaking using weaving terms.
