In my previous post, LINK, I showed how to make lucet cord with the Vasilisa Comfort Dolls that have peg legs.
There are also links to a whole slew of videos that I have made about what to make with lucet cord in that post.
I have made another video tutorial that shows how to make lucet cord with the Bee and Ladybug Vasilisa Doll lucets that I design and make.
Here’s the for the video:
I love Mermaids, so of course, I had to design a Mermaid for the Teneriffe Lace Weave Along.
There are several ways to make her- you can use either triangles or dewdrop shapes for her fins and you can do the more tightly shaped lower body on the left or the wider body on the right.
If you don’t like the ‘Fairy Hair’ option, you can use the Dewdrop shape for her hair.
Here’s the video showing how to make the Teneriffe Lace Mermaid:
The Teneriffe Lace Butterfly Body is a basic shape that is very useful and will be used in more than just making lace butterflies.
Here’s the video showing how to make it:

To make Teneriffe Lace, you need to have a flat, sturdy pin cushion that the loom sits on.
Here’s the list of equipment and materials that you’ll need to make your Teneriffe Lace Pin Cushion:
1- Corrugated cardboard
2- Sharp craft knife (do NOT use dull knives and always cut away from yourself)
3- A cutting board
4-Scissors
5- Fabric and felt to cover the pin cushion and to make the base
6- Needle and Thread
7- Thimble
Instructions:
1- Cut 8 circles of cardboard that are 4 inches/10 cm in diameter for the larger pincushion for your square loom.
2- The triangle loom works fine on a 3 1/2 inch/8.75 cm diameter pin cushion. Cut 8 circles of corrugated cardboard for this pin cushion. Note- in the video, I only cut 6 for the smaller pin cushion, which is okay, but 8 circles are better.
Now, the video shows how to put it all together:
