Hello David and all,
In Spain, this kind of pattern (but in horizontal direction) means a tulle
ground is made. I will try to explain how.
In Almagro, where the typical Spanish blonde was made (the blonde for the
mantillas), as they used very very fine thread, they didn't draw one line of
dots,
I just found a similar pattern of dots, in Danish Net. This is a Torchon
pattern in Bridgette Cooks, Building Torchon Lace Patterns book, as I have
no idea of Toender lace, I cannot say whether it would be helpful or not.

Sue T,
I have been unsubscribed for a few weeks because of an unexpected family
death in the UK shortly before Christmas and having to dash off at a moments
notice.
But I have just re-subscribed and seen the message about the Tonder
Pricking. I am jumping in without having seen the original posting

Hello Barbara and all others too,
In the booklet From OIDFA Point Ground Lace you find seven fillings
with such a pricking. So we have the choice which one to take.
Perhaps David is eager enough and work all of them.
Greetings

Could you take a foto and create a foto album and there we see the
pricking itself.

Hi David,
I went through my Tonder patterns and books. I found
a pattern that had a grid of dots that I think matches
what you described. The dots are parallel to, and
spaced the same as, the dots along the edge row on the
pattern.
The picture and diagram show a snowflake ground.

Dear Friends,
I am spending a couple of days preparing an old Toender pricking
which I've had for some years. This is a beautiful edging just over
3 deep and I am told was of lace which belonged to a Comtesse
Ahlefedt-Laurvigen - there are a number of possibilities from which to choose.

David, the first thing that comes to my mind is a pinchain type of filling
done on the diagonal, but I really wasn't able to view the dots as you
wished--on my screen, there are dots on the left, then a big space, then
some different dots on the right.
Any chance you could scan the pricking and
