Dear Annette Gabrielle answered already many important things. You might also want to look at my page about this subject: http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/lace/hang-EN.html Another picture is on http://www.xs4all.nl/~falkink/lace/kant-EN.html Bigger (both length and diameter) bobbins are more comfortable to work with, but also more difficult to stack. I tried the hooded bobbins, but they made me mad with sewings: they tend to split. If you want to try, look for smooth wood quality otherwise the thread wears very fast. Look also for Tamara's report on her Praghue Workshop in the archive http://www.mail-archive.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]/
Most importantly: take it easy, learn to relax, take your pauses, and learn to listen to your body. I know it is difficult but you don't want to end up needing help in the bathroom! Or to lift your cup of tea, or ... Consider even to quit making lace / use your PC privately for half a year and then start again very carefully with 5 minutes per day. It has been horrible to me, but helped me to recover. Good luck!
