Steel linen with a start of carved work with wheels and squares as an example of this technique with matching fragment. Steel natural linen with edge embroidery: reticella in open sewing technique (cut work). Study material. In the coarse linen, a start is made of a geometric pattern with four rows of openwork squares, as an example of this technique. In a diagonal line, wheels are around three intersections, one wheel per intersection, made by sprinkling chain and weft threads with feston stitches.

Steel linen with a start of carved work with wheels and squares as an example of this technique with matching fragment. Steel natural linen with edge embroidery: reticella in open sewing technique (cut work). Study material. In the coarse linen, a start is made of a geometric pattern with four rows of openwork squares, as an example of this technique. In a diagonal line, wheels are around three intersections, one wheel per intersection, made by sprinkling chain and weft threads with feston stitches. Also the tanning wires with which the wheels are formed with feston stabs opposed. In six opened squares, a wheel is in a network of non-founded tanning threads per square. To the right of the pattern you see how chain wires (vertical) and weft threads (horizontally) are partly cut away and pulled out. A start has been made with the festions of the bundles of weft threads that have left. The linen is finished with hems along which a edge of work is made with pulled out wires. The steel belongs a fragment of fine linen that has the same pattern and is finished.
