Hello Karen

That surprises me - I've only ever seen one pattern (modern torchon) with a working angle as steep as that, and it was an experimental design as part of a City & Guilds exam course. Also maybe some of the very distorted computer generated patterns might have small areas like that but they would have other parts with very shallow working angles to compensate.

Yes - this is very possible with some of the old laces or some of the more
irregular patterns requiring infill.
