I'm about to work dragon no. 4 from Ulrike Löhr's book (or rather sheet collection) "Hausdrachen". But I can't figure out how exactly the ground is worked - the one shown in the photos doesn't match the pricking (I'd think some of the points must be left out when doing that ground). It looks like honeycomb net, but with just one twist instead of the two twists in honeycomb.
I already searched through Cook/Stott's Book of Bobbin Lace Stitches but couldn't find a match. Here's scans of the ground and a part of the edge of the pricking: http://gallery.me.com/achims63#100081 Any help as to what that ground is called and how to work it are highly appreciated! Best, Achim. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected]. For help, write to [email protected].
