According to the book, there is section 1 and section 2, with separate
bobbin counts, so they are worked separately.
If you look at the small triangle of pricking (of section 2) at the bottom
of the page - 1/6th of the centre - along the bottom edge there are a partly
drawn on row of dots makin
Hi. I believe that this is made in two parts, sort of. The outside edging is
made first. Then the pins are pushed down around the center section for 2 or 3
rows to anchor it well. The inside part is done with sewings in the connecting
pins. The little circles do mark the starting points and
Hi Miriam,
I would say you have to work it all in one. First you have to join section 1
and 2 (to form one triangle of the hexagon) and make 6 copies of this
triangle. Once you join the 6 parts, you get the complete pattern. If you
look at the picture of the finished lace, you don't see a joining
Dear Spiders,
I need your help. I want to make the center piece on page86 (leinikkipelto)
in the book "Let's make bobbin lace" by Eva-Lisa Kortelahti.
The pattern has two parts which, as far as I understand are worked
separately but yet one part is joined to the other part in some stage of
I'm trying to make a butterfly from Kortelahti's book "Let's make bobbin
lace". The pattern is on page 52. I wound my bobbins and started working
but after a very short while I realized that I have no idea how the
threads come in from the left side of the big butterfly wing. All the
pairs whi
Hi Vicki and lace list
The squiggly line on E-L's patterns means twists - if you look at the
photograph, there are twists in some of those half-stitch areas, and no
twists in one of them. Leave them out if you'd rather.
It also looks like the end bit of those h/s areas is done in CTC, to keep

Hi, everyone. I am "de-lurking" just long enough to ask for help with a
project I have taken on. I have been lacing for a few years off and on,
doing mainly Torchon but also a little Beds and Milanese. In a rare moment
of religious fervor, the Holy Spirit came upon me and inspired me to

Here's something I haven't seen anybody mention yet. Most of Kortelahti's
ring-shaped patterns are very open work. Just because the paper doesn't lay
flat doesn't mean the lace won't. The more open (less mesh) the pattern,
the easier it is to get it to lay flat. You may have to block the lace a

Good morning,
I am not sure which this pattern is, but some of Eeva Liisa's patterns
can be quite big when you make the pricking into a complete circle.
Will it fit your pillow? Without coming to

Will it fit your pillow? Without coming to within a couple of inches of
the edge that is? It might make more comfortable working to just make a

I have a Kortelahti pattern that I would like to do that is giving me fits.
It is 36 Kellot from- "Uudet Nyplaysmallet " I love the hearts and flowers.
There is only 1/8 of the circle given for the pricking pattern, so I (years
ago.) reduced it and made 8 copies to put together to complete the c
