Description
Reticella or point coupé is a beautiful style of needlelace that dates from the 15th century, a time when ornate clothing and fine lace were important symbols of wealth and status.
Originally a form of cutwork where threads were removed from linen fabric to create a grid over which the pattern was stitched, it developed into needlelace where the grids were formed only with thread, enabling lace of incredible fineness and delicacy to be worked.
Discover this wonderful technique by stitching a charming trio of needlebook, pincushion and scissor fob, utilising a single motif embellished with eyelets and satin stitch.
