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

Style: Torchon

Stitches:
   half stitch
   cloth stitch and twist

Details:
   triangular 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 coloured pairs are balanced on both sides. This makes them swap over, with alternate triangles being each colour. It does end up looking a bit like pattern 134, but there is more of a bar in the middle.
