Many thanks on all the feedback on this. The concept that the number of pins denotes the length of the section or repeat makes sense. My addendum LOKK book with the patterns for the two caps in it says the hul cap needs "one ell" of lace, which is "about 3 repeats", so you would really have to be working out where to start to get precisely the length you want and have one of the repeats centered in the front.
I would dearly love to buy a copy of the original hardcover book from LOKK but sadly, it is not only out of print, but seems to be completely unavailable. If anyone knows of one for sale, could they let me know direct please?
