RE: [lace] Lace ID (Susan H's question)
I think Sally is right -- the designer/creator used whatever techniques pleased her, and it doesn't fit into a particular niche. Also I do now see the needle lace filling stitches inside the loops made by the narrow braid.

[lace] Lace ID (Susan H's question)
In reference to Susan Hottle's question about a mat, https://www.flickr.com/photos/lacemaker/35865707036/in/album-7215763195503607 0/lightbox/ There is another possibility. Perhaps the designer/creator used various techniques, and the entire piece does not fit any one designation. I know a woman who frequently finishes her Torchon bookmarks with macramé, for instance, and they are beautiful and unique. This is a very interesting and beautiful mat! Hats off to the creator!

[lace] Lace ID?
This morning I found braids, similar to the lace sample, on bestneedleart.com under braids, DMC. Two widths of flat braid with straight edges--very plain. The bumpy "catepillar" braid is the one that we've all used in workshops. Then there are the decorative braids, zig zag etc. used for more advanced projects. Now this. Hmmm.

Re: [lace] lace ID?
It looks to me like someone combined techniques.  There are a few filling stitches and the picot bars for connecting. But it is primarily Irish Crochet motifs.
