Darn it. I thought I could avoid the making itch but I think I am succumbing to all the knot making.
A friend of mine, who I got talking to after your last project, who is a lacemaker here in Norway said that you should always have a sampler that you "warm up on" for about 10 minutes or so to get your tension correct before working on your main project. Even after 40 years of making lace, she still has a sampler that she starts with. She said it is like stretching before playing a sport. Gets your mind and fingers focused so that your piece is as good as it can be because you aren't warming up on it. Hope that helps! It looks lovely and I think will make a lovely neckline to any piece you add it to.

Actually you don't need the tape. You can outline the pattern with a double thread of the same yarn. The rest is the same techniques.

When you decided to take on learning this process to make a fantasy dress, I thought you were crazy. Now I know you are crazy and I am soooooooo happy that you are! Lovely lace.

🤣🤣🤣 I know I am crazy, but half the fun is trying!
I had no idea that Battenberg lace starts with tape. That you would dare to set out to learn something so complex is a real inspiration.
I find this magical, to see your beautiful creation growing in front of you. My grandmother was an amazing tatter, I have a hankie with blue tatting on the edge that I w ore pinned to my hoop skirt on my wedding day. One of my finest treasures!
Look how beautifully it lays on your neck, so wonderful! I do believe you are ready for the big time!
The photo of you wearing your collar with the wine colored dress was incredible. The collar is STUNNING! I’m sure you’re so proud of taking the time to learn and to make such a gorgeous and versatile piece. And, you’ve even gone a step further and taught people how they too can learn to make lace items. Call me impressed!
Your lacemaking video in January sent me down a MASSIVE lace rabbithole and I ended up taking up tatting as a lockdown hobby, so thank you for that!
The amount of research, preparation, and work you put into this really shows. So, so beautiful!
Congratulations on finishing this piece of art. I know how many hours creep in to making a piece like this. I was taught by an old lady who made needle lace for a living in the earlier part of the 20th century (in Flanders). You developed a great technique for yourself. Wonderful job!
When you showed the final collar, I thought that it looks so so beautiful but that you yourself probably mostly see all the tiny imperfections because you have worked on it so close up for a good amount of time - and then you mentioned how your tension changed. Thank you for this video and the previous one, it solved some great mysteries for me. =)
Oh your happy face just before you unpinned the collar from the pillow 👌👌 I love how this came out, and seeing the process!
This video has magical sunshine garden vibes. I am absolutely in love with this video and the final look of your project. Thank you so much for sharing. It is stunning!
I just keep rewatching. I'm so happy you are having fun. Thank you for sharing your adventures
I love the results! However I can’t unsee this but the design looks like an elephant bowing with faerie wings and the pearl looks like a star shining above it. I love it! Your making me want to pick up lace making ahh

Your smile when you look at your finished project before you take it off the pillow is fantastic. The collar is so so beautiful.
The lace you made is gorgeous! Thank you for sharing. Lace making is time consuming yet ever so satisfying.
I know understand the quote about nuns going blind making such lace for wedding trim back in the day! So darn tiny! Cheers doll!
At 10:12, the look on your face made me smile from ear to ear. LOVE this!
You are actually a wizard. I am Complacently in awe of your spider skills :)
Thank you so much for sharing! It's SO beautiful and it's such a joy to see you so pleased with yourself and your work. You're just lovely!
This is such a calming video to watch. Perfect for when you're feeling down.
What a beautiful lace work Marika
Ohh that looks lovely!! When I saw the final product all I could think of was how much it reminded me of the collars on early 1900's blouses!!
I really don't need yet another hobby, but you make it look so tempting! Your lace turned out beautifully!
I wish I was immortal just so I could learn absolutely everything there is to learn regarding fashion. Your videos fascinate me I had never thought about making lace myself and now I wanna know how to do that, I just don't have time to focus on everything I love at the same time especially with my mental illness. But it definitely is a fascinating craft, thank you for sharing
This was amazing to watch, the lace is so pretty and you show the technique really nicely. Thank you for this video!
I hope we see more designs for necklaces soon...!!! You work wonderful and lovely creations...!!! So many skills...!!! Such beauty...!!!
What a wonderful resource. You should definitely be happy with the end result of this, it’s a gorgeous collar with beautiful stitch work. I got here from Morgan’s video, and I’m so glad I did. I miss costuming.
**falls to the floor** sooooo gorgeous!!!! what an incredible thing you made! I am fully and totally inspired. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge your journey your learning and for not being afraid to show your mistakes and admitting that your not a pro. Who needs pro when you have passion right? A pro is just someone with passion who becomes an expert over time ( though if you ask me I wouldn't say your far from it ) I can't wait to design and make my first collar! Bless you for sharing all the links and the books with us!!! I too squealed with joy seeing that 1900's lace book and you are an angel for sharing it! Fabulous fabulous work I can't even imagine your satisfaction at removing it from the pillow and holding it in your hands for the first time! I am fully looking forward to the exhilarating experience one day. Thank you for helping me get started!
What an accomplishment! Well done. I have a whole new appreciation for the Battenburg lace that I own.
I just started learning bobbin lace. Now I can add this too hobby wish list.

Oh Marika, it's lovely!
The Modern Maker . Matthew Gnagy. His lace work is amazing, it is needle and thread. You American costumers are sooo talented. Love what gou do.
Oh my goodness, that is so pretty! You did an awesome job!!
Justifiabl pride in this piece! That's gorgeous
This was very soothing and oddly satisfying to watch. Thank you for sharing!
I'm going to go back and watch all your lace videos! This is something I've been wanting to try for a while!!!
This is so inspiring. Magical to watch it all come together.
The collar turned out absolutely lovely!
Beautifully done Marika - patience is definitely a virtue 😍
Creating something beautiful like this is a absolut dream of mine.
I have always liked the look of Battenberg lace. I never dreamed of making it myself...til now. After seeing your beautiful collar, I need to start making some. Thank you for the inspiration and instruction.
Every new stitch you show, I think, “ooh, this one’s my favorite!” and then it becomes dethroned by each subsequent arrival!
I had seen your other videos where you discuss lacemaking, but watching this right after watching your recent CoCoVid collab with Morgan makes me feel like this is actually something I could pick up. Seeing Morgan follow your instructions in a way any person might was hugely inspiring, and seeing you make this has given me so many potential ideas!
Find someone who looks at you the way ERC looks at a finished lace collar 😂😍
Darn it! I really didn't need another crafty rabbit hole to fall down, but weirdly that looks like a lot of fun!
I am in awe at your patience! It is a stunning piece
Beautiful work!!! My mother is a lacemaker who uses bobbin lace and tatting methods. I have always admired people who have the patience for Battenburg Lace. Can't wait to see the beauty of your Worth gown.
Lace making is such an impressive art. Amazing!
Love this. It actually prompted me to go back and learn crochet from my mammy again. She tried to teach me years ago and I just wasn't in the mood to sit and fiddle with wool/thread as a teenager but now that I realise that beautiful things can be made by my own hands (eventually) I've got the drive to once again learn...and I always remember her telling me when I was younger how she always regretted not learning from her own mother when she was alive and ended up being taught by her sister's mother-in-law and it's not a regret I want for myself. So I'm sitting with my mammy, tv in the background, gritting my teeth as she takes the needle and wool out of my hands to show me how to do a new stitch when all I want to do is dive straight into trying it myself. Thank you Marika for giving me that push that may have eluded me until it was too late. So much love for you for this.
It's beautiful! Looking forward to seeing the dress come together!
Absolutely exquisite! What a delight to watch and learn!
That looks absolutely amazing! Your gown collar is going to be a true statement piece once you're done with it!
That was absolutely beautiful!! ❤️
It was my 7yo turn to be impressed by your "beautiful necklace!" Ha ha i think she wants us to try lace making now 🤣
Just beautiful, you should be very proud of the end result.. Keep them coming!
The Outlander books in the background earned you my sub ;)
I love your clips of just peaceful sewing
I remember my grandmother making this lace, a;ong with her tatting lace. She began teaching me to tat with a needle when I was four years old. Good job. :D
Beautiful.Thanks so much🌹
Well done!!!! looks fantastic...
I admire your craftsmanship and skill a lot. Thank you for the inspiration and good luck with your creativity!
cannot believe you did that. Gorgeous!
You did a great job. As a bead & embroidery artist (and costumes as well) I think you explain and video exactly what I would want to see. I know the techniques but it is always good to see other people do the same work. Even if you are a beginner. You should be proud of your masterpiece!
Amazing and gorgeous. Even though I had previously seen your sampler video, I never realized that could turn into a piece like you just did. At some future point I want to try this. You know...after all the other projects on my completion list. So many beautiful craft ideas, so little time.
The beginning is the same process as making dream catchers. Interesting.
This is sooooo calming to watch!! Beautiful job!! I absolutely love lace
Absolutely gorgeous! Does anyone else think the finished collar looks like an elephant coming out of a jungle? Stunning :) Love how the pearl came out too
This is gorgeous
Wow that is just astonishing! Such a fine and detailed work, I find it both interesting and relaxing!
Wow! How could anyone criticise your work? I'd never attempt it so for a beginner, the quality of your work is incredible.
Stunning and inspirational
beautiful it's been years since I learned lace making. I was taught both how to make needle lace and tatting lace. Very beautifully done. I think when tension is altered when making lace from hand adds character and adds to its beauty. Please continue to teach this art to others. I feel it's kind of a lost art and it's something like crocheting and knitting which is a very useful skill to learn and know. I cannot speak for you but I find lacemaking very relaxing. Thank you for this video.
Truly beautiful & I love the pearl in it.
That is absolutely beautiful, thank you so much for sharing this with us. You have inspired me to have a go at making some needlepoint lace. xx
So pretty, now I want one too. Get in the line, new hobby!
So beautiful!! I love the sheer joy you exude!
This is very cool to see! Thanks for sharing the process. It also reminds me of the tutorials I have seen in 1920s magazines and such where they would take bias strips or tape and lay shapes out like this and use fagoting to stitch it all together similar to this battenburg style.. then they would insert the prices into knickers, dresses, slips, etc. So pretty!
It's so amazing! I'm so impressed it looks fabulous. I remember watching your first lace video and it's just so cool to watch you progress. I watched your video with Morgan too and oh my goodness. I love all your lace videos. I can't wait to see more!
The finished lace looks really nice
Instant click from Morgan’s video which I loved. The detail is fascinating. I learned a bit of bobbin lace making but now seriously want to try this!

Lovely work! I did not need another hobby, but this is fascinating to watch.
Thank you for showing use what I think could be not only a relaxing skill but a truly amazing addition to my skills, Jason from England 🤓
That is gorgeous! Great job!
Congratulations!
I may be a bit late to the party here, but one way to add beads to lace is to already have it on the string. Maybe look at lace tatting guides and crochet lace patterns? Some of the books I have on those carry good advice on dealing with beads!
Your videos documenting this inspired me. I'm getting the supplies needed for this for my 24th birthday and am gonna give it a shot so I can add lace to my clothes!
This is so beautiful!! I'm drooling over here!
That is absolutely beautiful work! It was so pretty.
