I'm also in the UK and agree with Brenda on this one, but it might also
be a dialect thing within UK English to explain why Margery thinks
differently!
At college this type of lace was always referred to as "darned net" - in
my case, with a large amount of emphasis put on the first word!!! It was
not a lace I enjoyed making, but we had to produce samples of both the
net and the lace as part of the City & Guilds course.

I speak UK english but I would pronounce it as LASS-ISS.
The first syllable is LASS as in a girl and the second is pronounced
with an 'S' at the end, not 'Z'.
The stress is on the first syllable.
