Electronic Embedded Lace: A Sampler of Functional Interactive Tatting Techniques and Circuits
Article No.: 88, Pages 1 - 5
Abstract
This paper presents an e-textile sampler of techniques embedding conductive thread and conventional electronic components in tatting lace. It has been proven that wires and connections to components can be made with the tatting structure of half-hitch knots around a foundational core thread. Structures for making components such as sensors entirely out of tatted lace made with conductive and insulating threads are proposed. Lace e-textiles are presented as appending existing garments with an embedded fabric to add functionality rather than replacement, providing opportunities for soft, deformable open lace structure textile interactions. At the event, the author aims to connect global lacemaking traditions and solicit contributions from the integrated textile community by demonstrating the tatting technique and samples of work.
