I have just finished Carolina's Witch Stitch Spider which I started last weekend. It was really interesting to work and although I made a real mess of the first leg with the serpentina braid the final result is not too bad. I used the recommended Finca 80 thread and it is lovely. I know that Barbara Underwood is recommending it for Bedfordshire lace now. I found it very strong and smooth to work with. Well worth a try if you are having problems with weak threads. I know it comes in no.40 as well, and according to Brenda's book lots of other sizes. Roseground Lace supplies keep it in the UK.
Now, what do I do with my large arachne spider? t-shirt? Bag? Hat? Watch out for her at Scarborogh and Prague.
Thanks Carolina it's a lovely design.
