This is a list of supplies compiled by the Lace List a few years ago. I
found a printout of this with my lace patterns as I was filing them.
While the List is rather quiet, you might like to review these items.
How many of these things do you have in your lace supplies? Do you have
something in your supplies that is *not* on this list?
