This bright red #cardinal has been sitting in a tree directly over my head as I’ve been gardening today, just singing his heart out.
Whoa. I just played that back while taking a break & the cardinal heard himself singing & flew right at me to see where the source was!
Now he’s sitting in a different tree a bit confused.
Cardinal Fortunato Frezza.
I'm leaning towards #bobbinLace here...?
Cardinal Arrigo Miglio, also rocking some #hemstitching
Cardinal Gianfranco Ghirlanda.
With a humble bit of #hemstitching (as far as we can see. Could be all 'party at the bottom').
Edited: found another pic. If that's him at the left of the first row then the white shirt ended as humbly as it started)
Cardinal Oscar Cantoni.
Here it is again. Tape-lace, filet crochet and the little motifs with the yarn "bridges" that look like #RichelieuLace or #MadeiraLace?
A gorgeous piece...
I think Cardinal You Heung-sik and Cardinal Leonardo Ulrich Steiner here have the same tailor.
Or at least the same lace-maker :-D
Cardinal Lazarus You Heung-sik.
Again with the lace that looks like crochet but is kinda too detailed for crochet...
I wish someone would put me out of my misery here and tell me what it is.
Cardinal Filipe Neri António Sebastião do Rosário Ferrão.
OMG. There's element of tape-lace in it, which could be either bobbin lace or crochet (aka Bruges lace). Also, the pixel-art looking lace could be filet crochet again.
So, different crochet techniques? Which would point to hand-made...
