Hearst Museum object titled Oya, accession number 9-21232a-d, described as Oya, in process. A and B: 2 flattened tubes of paper forming cross on which thread and beads are wound. C: silk or nylon thread, white, threaded with green glass beads, partially worked to form 236cm L x ~0.5cm W chain of vaguely floral design oy. D: metal crochet hook, very fine hook. Oya were traditionally made using a needle, not crocheted with a crochet hook. “Today other techniques, tatting and crochet, have been substituted for needlelace, because they can create a similar effect in much less time.” (Hickman).
