Fleldapetra: A Workshop Guide to Bobbin Lace
A Spanish-language editorial guide to making bobbin lace, from preparing the pillow and pattern to finishing and preserving the piece.
Field notes
The guide organizes bobbin-lace work in the order a maker encounters it, beginning with the pillow, pins, and perforated picado pattern before moving into winding, crossings, tension, and basic structures. It specifies that a pillow’s filling must hold pins firmly, warns against mixing pin lengths or thicknesses, and explains how a cylindrical pillow allows long strips to advance without dismantling the work. The page also covers removal, washing, starching, and conservation of the finished lace.
