I have no problem with using aluminium bobbins apart from them being very
light in weight. I have no problem with aluminium knitting needles except I

Dear ladies, Wow, what a great idea. I have always said lacemakers are smart.

A few months ago someone posted that they were having trouble picking up
bobbins
because their hands were getting arthritic. They were asking about
