An article from Master Weaver that compares Bronson lace with Swedish lace. It argues that the lace is identical in a single block but differs in two-block drafts, tie-ups, and block alignment, and that Swedish lace suits counterbalanced looms without a shed regulator. It then explains turned Swedish lace in detail: threading units, incidental heddles, a profile draft, treadling sequences, and a practical project in 20/2 linen at 20 ends per inch with 286 ends. Ten figures (drafts and drawdowns) illustrate the comparison.
