SOKK og ROKK goes Bobbin Lace...

Valenciennes Lace, Bobbin Lace, Kniplinger, Spets and probably many other names...in other languages, the technique is the same. It is all about twisting and moveing thin threads in a particullar system. Here we show you how it looks when you work...

A "Wood of Needles" is a good description of the way it looks during the work process. The common used thread is linnen and sometimes cotton. Silk could have been used too, in the old times.

The work is finished, it is great that Robert in SOKK og ROKK has started to take interest and care in this old technique.
If you have old patterns or know someone that has patterns, pleace contact us at:

Thanks in advance
