    I've added Chapters to this one, in the Description area under the video, in case you need to go back over any parts if you are sewing along.

      Yes, it's a nice technique for making lace, and one of a few different ways it's made in Ireland.

      Glad you're going to give it a go. Yes, I'll have more parts to this, and there's a part 3 up already, to keep you going until the next one. Have fun.

    • @Skavop

      Yes. It's an unusual technique, and people have come up with all sorts of ways to make lace through the ages, that you'd never be able to guess the technique behind. Enjoy part one. That's done in a very particular way, too.

    Just finished my first panel of Brussels stitch thanks to you! My tension is a bit tight but not bad honestly! (Not surprised ima tight knitter and crocheter 😅😂) So next time I’ll be more loose

    • @Skavop
      @Skavop  16 днів тому +1

      Well done. I found Brussels Stitch the hardest to learn of all the stitches, because there's no knot to hold it, and I'm glad you're experienced enough with sewing to know your tension is something that improves quickly, once you know what to expect.

    Apologies for the ads on this video. Not my doing, and I would prefer if UA-cam didn't put them there, but they are trying to force everyone to pay for YT at the mo', by being as annoying as possible with ads everywhere.

    My second piece is indeed better than my first. So enjoying this! I have shared the link to a slow stitch group that allows shared links and hope others will be interested to have a go. I have also shared it on a larger slow stitch group but just my finished result on that one as links are not allowed but people might contact me to ask. waiting with joyful anticipation for part 3. thank you so much.

    This looks very similar to stumpwork. Very interesting.

    • @Skavop
      @Skavop  2 місяці тому

      I'm not well up on stumpwork, although I've seen some lovely videos on it here on UA-cam. Remember, though, that with this lace technique, the stitches are mostly on the front, because at the end of everything, the cotton you built the cordon (scaffolding structure for the stitches) on gets cut away completely, to reveal the lace design without any backing (that bit's pretty fun).

    • @judithhope8970
      @judithhope8970 2 місяці тому

      ​@@SkavopYes, stump work is often built up on wires to be three D. The looping stitch looks the same though, used on the Bayeux tapestry a lot too, all that time ago. The origin of stump work is obscure, so it may have included stitches from Irish Lace in the seventeenth century? Who knows.

    • @Skavop
      @Skavop  2 місяці тому

      ​@@judithhope8970 Well, I know some Irish lace techniques were imported from France originally, so I bet there was lots of cross-pollination of ideas, to create some of the beautiful things. I just took a look at a blog on early stumpwork and the things they created were pretty amazing, and so cleverly made.
