Hi Arachnids

I have been asked a question. ‘Which laces have the footside on the left and
which on the right?’ As far as I know only the English laces Bucks Point and
Bedfordshire have the footside on the left. Even the English Downton has it on
the right. Does anyone know of any other laces with it on the right?

As for why I have several ideas.  1) Someone with little experience or who had
not made it for some time introduces lacemaking in England. 2) The person
introducing the lace wanted to put her ‘stamp’ on it. 3) The person who
introduced the lace worked it out how it was made by examining the lace.

Any information, comments and discussion is going to be very interesting.

Happy lacemaking

Alex
