I was taught "You will first do a bandage in whole stitch", which was CTC. Then one in half stitch - CT. Then whole stitch and twist - CTCT. That's what's stuck in my mind and will be forever. I've heard double stitch mentioned - don't want to know what it is, as it's not a term I will use.

Then open and closed methods were mentioned much later - I gather what I do is the closed method - but I don't really care. I do what I do.

I'm not going to teach; I'm not going on any courses. I make lace for my pleasure and no-one else's. So it doesn't matter what I call anything, or what anyone else calls it, so long as we get the results we want.

There are no lace police - or there's not supposed to be.
