They did it from the threads of the ship's ropes.
However, there is another version of the origin of this type of lace. According to this version, Irish lace appeared due to the fashion for Brussels lace, which was very expensive, especially for ordinary people.Therefore, the poor Irish, in order to feed themselves and their families, decided to create their own kind of lace. At the same time, they used not a needle, as was done in an expensive form of lace, but a hook, because the process of work went much faster and easier.
Weaving
Weaving is no less popular type of needlework than everyone else. When performing work, various flexible materials are used, including threads, stems, bast fibers and more.
