Having installed chain link fencing (Home Depot variety) I am flabbergasted about the lace fencing -- I wish I could tell what kind of wire they used, the stuff normal chain link is made from is tough and REALLY hard to bend, let alone twine and twist! I've experimented with maknig hand made lace with thread once before, nothing this complicated, and the flexibility of the fiber is critical, so this wire lace is that much more amazing!
