So presumably lacemakers could only make lace sitting on such a stool while
they could get down to sit on it and, more difficult, get up from it.

That would mean that I'd never have started lacemaking 7 years ago as I
haven't been able to get down that low for the past 10 years, or get up from
it for the past 13. I'd have had to throw the pillow to one side, roll over
onto my hands and knees (assuming I wasn't stuck in the seated position) and
then find something to pull myself up on. I'm not the only one who wouldn't
have been able to cope with it, even though I'm only 5 feet 2 inches tall.
