Pattern 132 - Torchon double ground offset ribbon

Picture of lace

This is one of a series of experiments to see what happens if we have a simple strip of ground.

Pattern:
   Pattern of lace

Bobbins: 6 pairs (1 pair gold, 1 pair sparkly blue, 4 pairs red)

Style: Torchon

Stitches:
   half stitch
   cloth stitch and twist

Details:
   double Torchon ground (grey, green and pink)
   twisted footside (grey)

Description:

Follow the links above for explanation of how to work the different parts of the lace.

The sparkly pairs are offset from each other. The double stitch in the middle makes them double back, which gives a different effect to pattern 131.

If you prefer, you can make both sparkly pairs the same colour.
