[lace] Teneriffe looms

[Margot Walker]

A cheap way to own a 'loom' with many arms is to buy a wheel of straight 
pins with coloured heads.  (I don't know what it's really called, but 
some brands of coloured plastic/glass headed pins come stuck into a 
plastic wheel.)  It works really well, especially when you remove your 
work.  You just have to remove the pins and the work drops off.  Mine 
has 40 pins, so that means 40 'arms'.  You can see a picture of a 
similar product by going to:

and scroll down to the last entry on the page.

 I would like very much to work Teneriffe using an old fashioned 
"constructor" or loom.
 Crazy Daisy looms don't have enough "arms for intricate work.
