Good advice. Today at the UK Lace Guild annual conference in Scarborough I am going to
wear a royal blue T shirt with an elephant motif in grey; the elephant has a red
orange and yellow howdah on his back. He had his first outing here in Scarborough four
years ago and has survived being machine washed. I don't put him in the dryer though.
It so happens that the elephant is tatted, but bobbin lace can be used in just the
same way.
