Withof Bobbin Lace & Poems by Karen: January 2012

This is one of my favorite pieces of lace. It is done using Withof techniques. One of my friends says she sees the Holy Trinity, the star of Bethlehem, and The Three Wise Men.

Welcome friends!

Well hello to all! This is a first to me so please bear with this novice. My life has become enriched with many types of fiberworks. When I was a 5 year old child my grandmother taught me how to crochet with a tiny hook and crochet cotton. As time went by I have grown into knitting, cross stitch, needlepoint, and tatting. My favorite of all is lacemaking. Withof lace is my very favorite type of lace to make and design. I love the distict lines and shadows withof is noted for and how designs can be so defined. Color can be added, however I prefer to use white for definition. There are times that Kreinik sparkle threads have been used in my laces, again I like to use white sparkle threads for emphisis. I hope you enjoy looking at these laces as much as I enjoy creating them.
