Jean Horne was on this list for awhile and lives in South Africa. She may still be on the list, but I haven't seen her post for a long time.
Is this the pricking that you are talking about? I was sent it by Jean a few years ago. If so , it looks as if the area below the Holy family is worked in cloth stitch in one direction. Before working the next row from right to left, the passives are worked in pairs in cloth stitch and twist (ctct), then you work the row in cloth stitch (CTC) and so on. You will find this happening in various Milanese braids. She used to sell booklets of lace patterns worked in colour at one point, but I haven't seen them for a while, and there may well be more booklets out now. - Sue [email protected] -----Original Message----- From: Vickie Green Sent: Saturday, December 08, 2012 12:30 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [lace] Jean Horne nativity help Hello there gentle spiders, I have a question for you: I have a copy of a little Bucks Point Nativity pattern (about 3inches long in a lozenge shape) by Jean Horne.
