All this talk of Cantu made me go to my bookcase where I have a paperback book I bought in Venice at the newspaper/bookshop. It is entitled "l'arte del ricamo il tombolo" ISBN 88-440-1383-1 The inside cover above the title has "Associazione Culturale AD MAIORA" It is all in Italian and I am wondering what type of lace it is in the book. It has instructions on bobbin lace with wonderful closeup photos of how to do the basic stitches and making plaits, talleys and how to start a pattern. The section headed Il Lacoro has prickings and photos of the laces which to me look like simple tape laces. Does anyone else have this book and can tell me more about the lace type? Janice
