Brenda suggests: > Jennifer Fisher's Torchon Lace for Today > Rosemary Shepherd's Introduction to Bobbin Lacemaking > Bridget Cook's Torchon Lace Workbook as good beginners books. It just struck me that two of these are by Australians, which kinda reflects the way so many Australians lace in isolation and need a good beginners book. I taught myself the basics from Rosemary's book which she now sells direct since it went out of commercial publication.
And Samrah, the other invaluable book is Brenda's own book, Threads for Lace, which is reference book of almost every thread type known, and what size grid to use for it, and what substitutes you can use. For most spiders, our copies are already dog-eared!
