Moved to chat because my response has nothing to do with lace:
My mother complained once that she'd never been allowed to ride her brother's motorcycle. By the time she had the money to buy her own, she was too brittle to risk it. One of her grandsons got the motor-biking gene, but I settle for my pedal bike. Cranking down a quiet country lane is great for thinking things over. And I like to sing, but can't carry a tune in a basket. On the bike, nobody can catch me to complain! I majored in math in college, but can't call myself a mathemetician. And I don't make lace. Haven't even tatted in years. But my default knitting needles are 1.5 mm, and I do a lot of point de Venise on the heels of socks. (That's the name of a darning style; it may or may not be related to a lace of the same name.) Someone once posted a picture of an elegant tatted motorcycle on the Web; even if it's still there, I no longer remember enough to Google for it. -- Joy Beeson To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
