Puntilla blanca / White point lace.
Hace unos días estoy trabajando en esta puntilla de 5 cm. de ancho.
Las flores las saqué de un diseño de Punto Cruz. Me costó un poco elegirla, porque las que me gustaban eran demasiado grandes para el ancho de la puntilla.
Aún le falta el toque final que después lo montraré.
Gracias por su visita !
Feliz fin de semana !!!
For few days I'm working in this 2" wide point lace.
The flowers are from a Cross Stitch design. It was difficult to choose them, because what I did like were to big for the point lace.
I'm still working on it, I'll show you later.
Thank you for your visit !!
Happy weekend !!!

Me gustó mucho este color rosa cuando lo conseguí en la tienda.
Tejí una puntilla finita para este babero. Quedó sencillo y delicado.
I really like this colour when I saw it in the store.
I have made a thin lace point for this bib, simple and delicate.

Donde aprendí a tejer Randa / Were I learned to knit Randa
Ya son varias personas que quieren saber dónde aprendía tejer la Randa.
Cuando tenía unos 15 años mi papá me llevó a casa de mi abuela materna para que aprenda la técnica. Así es como ese verano mi abuela -Segunda Francisca Galvan- me enseñó, con mucha paciencia,los secretos de este encaje. Ella lo aprendió de su mamá.
No hay otra manera de aprender la Randa sino de persona a persona. Y lamentablemente no existen más de 40 randeras en Tucumán, Argentina (cuna de la Randa ).
Segunda F. Galvan
There are many persons who want to know were I learned to knit Randa.
When I was 15 years old, my father drop me at my Grandmother's house to learn the technique. That summer my Grandma-Segunda Francisca Galvan -tough me with all her patience, all the secrets of these lace. She has learned from her mother.
There is no other way to learn the Randa but person to person.Unfortunately there are no more than 40 artisans in Tucumán, Argentina (original place of the Randa from 16th century).
