**Embroidered lace** is embroidered on a base using a [needle](/source/Sewing_needle). The base varies according to the type.

Many techniques use a net, either woven or knotted. The net varies:

- Woven fabric with threads removed to make a grid ([Reticella](/source/Reticella), [Buratto](/source/Buratto))
- Machine made hexagonal net ([Limerick](/source/Limerick_lace), [Needlerun net](/source/Needlerun_net), [Tambour](/source/Tambour_lace))
- Knotted square net (either hand-made or machine-made) ([Filet](/source/Filet_lace))[1]

Sol laces are embroidered in a circular pattern on radiating spokes of threads. These include [Tenerife lace](/source/Tenerife_lace) and [Ñandutí](/source/%C3%91andut%C3%AD) lace.[2]
