Lace
Lace is a lightweight, openwork fabric, patterned with open holes in the work, made by machine or by hand. Lace-making is an ancient craft. True lace was not made until the late 15th and early 16th centuries. A true lace is created when a thread is looped, twisted or braided to other threads independently from a backing fabric.
Originally linen, silk, gold, or silver threads were used. Now lace is often made with cotton thread. Manufactured lace may be made of synthetic fiber. A few modern artists make lace with a fine copper or silver wire instead of thread.
There are many types of lace, defined by how they are made. These include:
Needle lace: made using a needle and thread. This is the most flexible of the lace-making arts.
Cutwork, or white work; lace constructed by removing threads from a woven background, and the remaining threads wrapped or filled with embroidery.
Bobbin Lace: as the name suggests, made with bobbins and a pillow.
Tape lace: makes the tape in the lace as it is worked, or uses a machine- or hand-made textile strip formed into a design, then joined and embellished with needle or bobbin lace.
Knotted lace: including Macram and Tatting.
Crocheted lace: including Irish crochet, pineapple crochet, and filet crochet.
Knitted lace: including Shetland lace, such as the "wedding ring shawl", a lace shawl so fine that it can be pulled through a wedding ring.
Machine-made: any style of lace created or replicated using mechanical means. The machine is used to tie up the 'M' point together.
Muslin
Muslin is most typically a closely-woven unbleached or white cloth, produced from corded cotton yarn. Wide muslin is called "sheeting". It is often used to make dresses or curtains but may also be used to complement foam for bench padding. Muslin breathes well, and is a good choice of material for clothing meant for hot, dry climates.
