I believe Needlelace as we know it today came into being because, before hand, it was worked in the spaces where threads from the fabric were withdrawn. When the garment was worn out â the needlelace was also thrown away, as it was part of the garment. Eventually they invented a way of making the lace separately from the garment, so it could be removed and used again on a different garment. Punto in Aria, and the needlelaces we know today came into being, due to this. Sounds sensible!!!!!!!!
I hope everyone is staying safe from this wretched virus, and that 2021 will be a better year than this one has been. We are slowly coming out of a 6 month long lock-down. Compliments of the Season to all. Regards from Liz. L. Melbourne, Oz. - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
