Bullion Sun

 Another addition:  Simple Bullion Stitches.  Center - per video, also can weave 3 rounds first, then add the bullion stitches - forms cylinders.

 1.25" 20 pins.  I tried DMC Coton Perle 8.  Color 959.   Very soft fiber.  Probably will go back to using Cebelia or Flora -- I wonder how Lizbeth fibers would work ....

 Instruction via You Tube.  (Tutorial 05) Centro de Bullones Simples en un Sol Redondo.

Next, Tutorial (6):

 

Second Eyelet Sun

The 2nd Eyelet Sun created a bit different from the first one.   I used Flora 20, Col. 45.  1.5" 24 pins.

Sol de Naranjito

 For Tutorial 03 (which has four parts) - You Tube:   I used DMC Cebelia, No. 20, Color 745. 2", 24 pins.

Naranjito Sun 

 My work space -- getting a start with the Sun Lace.

 Pulling the pins out! 

 I'm getting used to the patterns and pillow (w/pins).   My past Teneriffe Lace pieces were created on looms - so these are similar, yet unique techniques to learn.   (Tutorial on the left 1.25"  -- Tutorial on the right 2").   

The kit I purchased has everything needed.   Pillow, carry bag, scissors, threader, fiber, needle, 1" pins, patterns.   [i purchased extra patterns].

In addition - I found a few more  things useful.   Tape measure, small Clover brand clips, DMC needle threader (which holds the needle on a hook for threading), needle gripper to help get the needle thru small areas/anchoring, straight pin puller and pusher (saving my brittle nails), and a pricker for the patterns (again saving my fingers), pincushion, pin bowl -- lace making supplies in general.

The next pattern:   Tutorial 04
