I attempt at making a piece of Oya from a
photo I saw.Looks like they are using polyester or nylon thread in the photo but I am using cotton. I strung some beads on some Manuela variegated tatting thread (discontinued color of thread)and strung all I had and figured well since I was just playing I would make as many motifs as I could and then figure out how long the lace would be. I got 7 motifs before I ran out of beads.
This is the picture I saw on line.
I thought I would give it a go with a twist of my own. So i do not know if mine would be considered Oya any more or not but it is based on an oya pattern.I changed bugle beads to three seeds beads and thought I would give it a go since I was crocheting it onto anything like a scarf I just crochet it to a random piece of Romanian point lace cording. OK yes I know I am mixing laces and regions and do I care um-mm maybe a little but since it is for me not so much. I still need to find that box of nylon thread.
