The most demanding stitch to accomplish since it is made with a thin thread. Unfortunately, on the island, only a few lace makers have been able to do it. One of these is Emma Vidal, an ultracentenary lacemaker. It takes its name from the common fishermen’s net as the node is executed  the same way.

Finally “Relief” and “Smerli”  are made to give a “three-dimensional” effect to the work.

After months of work, the precious lace is detached from the paper by cutting the warp with a small blade.

The lace is cleaned, washed and almost exclusively framed.
