Originally, it was made by applying the cutwork technique, mainly using buttonhole stitches. You might understand it better if you say it's a "technique similar to embroidery." It is a lace made by carefully embroidering the fabric and then carefully cutting out the fabric, leaving only the thread part. The most distinctive feature is that even the fine net is handmade. Also, because it is embroidery, unlike bobbin lace, which has restrictions on the flow of thread, it was possible to freely express specific patterns such as flowers and rococo patterns, which is one of the major features of needlepoint lace.
