The IOLI has encountered this style question as well and has gone with lacemaker and lacemaking. Another English language style issue which needs resolution in an official lace style manual is whether the plural of lace is lace or laces. Also, at issue, is the word reticello or reticella. I could go on and on. I figure that since we write about it all the time, we are the ones to set the style, not other entities. Devon In a message dated 3/18/2009 4:45:20 P.M.
