Lacing Questions

Recommended Posts

Can anyone tell me if double loop lacing is the same as double cordovan lacing? I would also appreciate recommendations for any well illustrated books on lacing technique. Thanks

Yep, both those terms are used. "Double loop" is by far the most common method (U.S. makers) used. There's an OLD book "how to lace" from Craftool. Paper bound, black and white, and not at all "fancy", but it has detailed instruction on this and some other styles of lacing. Probably pick one up at any Tandy store (or where their stuff is sold) for a few bucks.

This style is used widely because (1) it's simple to do, and (2) it looks quite nice when properly done.

You might want to go to "kingsmerecrafts.com". That site has 117 pages of all kinds of leather working ideas and procedures --- including 'how to' lace, with diagrams (try pages 96-97). Mike
