Hi All---
Sorry for the cross-posting, but here is an interesting question from an
author friend of mine. Can someone help her out? Send me an email and I'll
send it to her and you can come up with the conversation from there.

Specifically, would it cause calluses or such if you do it as your

Thanks for the help!

No, you do not get calluses from lace-making, whether bobbin lace,
needle lace, or netted lace. You may develop problems with your
sight, or general health problems from being in a hunched-over
position for too many hours at a time. Your hands need to be smooth
to avoid catching on the fine threads.
