The Greek lacemakers on Aegina use a wrapping method to carry their threads 
from one place to another.   It was interesting to me to see that they didn't 
seem to bother about which side was up: the wraps were on made either side.   
It requires a bit of skill, but done right it looks very sleek.   They just 
bundle all the threads to be moved and wrap tightly till the whole is covered.

If you go to the OIDFA Congress in 2006 in Greece, you will see Anna doing 
this.   Some of you may remember her at the Greek exhibit in Suchol, she of the 
wonderful warm personality and glorious smile.
