Russian lace
Russian lace is a bobbin tape lace. The tape is made with bobbins at the same time as the rest of the lace, curving back on itself, and joined using a crochet hook. It was made in Russia, but similar laces made elsewhere are also called Russian lace.[1]
Fragment of lace "Lukomorie" based on by Alexander Pushkin's poem Ruslan and Ludmila
The designs of Russian lace are of abstract form. The narrow tapes or trails follow a maze-like path through deep scallops to merge again and wander into the next.[2]

gollark: Hmm. I don't know how to Minoteaur the Minoteaurs.
gollark: Oh, right, the actual video: this is an amateur potatOS security researcher revealing a bug they found.
