Steel linen with lace embroidery with pulled-out threads and four-pointed stars in a diagonal grid, Steel natural-colored linen with lace embroidery: work with pulled-out threads. Study material. In a substantial part of the coarse linen a square grid has been created by pulling out threads in the horizontal and vertical directions. With an added thread a start has been made with bundling the remaining threads that form the grid and finishing the edges around the grid with festival stitches. The bundling is carried out in diagonal lines, the added thread forms a diagonal grid in this way. The bundled wires form four-pointed stars. Diagonally below the pattern you can see how warp threads (vertical) and weft threads (horizontal) are partly cut away and pulled out of the linen fabric. The linen is finished with hems along which a border of work with drawn-out threads has been made. The steel is intended as an example of how this technique works. The sample comes with a fragment made with fine linen that has been finished., anonymous, Netherlands (possibly), c. 1925 - c. 1929, linen (material), h 17 cm × w 14 cm
