I'm intrigued to hear of an English lace being worked with the headside on the right, as on the Continent. I suppose there wouldn't be a problem with reversing the pricking and doing it the way I'm used to? (the photocopier at work can reverse images) Or would that make life difficult in some obscure way I'm not aware of? Would the lace police come in the middle of the night to take me away? :) Regards, Annette, London - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
