The Lace Guild competition is held every three years.  Entries must fall within one of 26 classes, which are divided among two sections:
Section A – Traditional Laces in Traditional Styles.  These need not be connected with the Contrasts theme
Section B – Contrast Theme entries

The currently available web information does not go into detail about the meaning of the Contrasts theme.  It is assumed the additional material available from The Hollies will clarify this.
