thanks for the help and suggestions and sorry I got you all worried on my behalf, LOL. I went and fetched the book to see what it says, rather than quote from memory. The book is Roz Snowden's "New Ideas for Miniature Bobbin lace" and it says the following:
The stitches used is Double Stitch, Cloth Stitch diamond and Bucks Point ground. I obviously made a mistake with the Torchon, must be just my fevered brain going into overdrive there. It starts by telling you to hang pins as follows: two pairs open on each pin (5 pins) two pairs open on 16 pins 2 pairs open on each pin (5 pins) Twist each pair and cover pins with cloth stitch and twist Work Bucks Point ground stitches in diagonal ros so that the ground is even throughtout Work clotch stitch diamonds where indicated ... and so on +++ I assume that I would twist each pair and then do the cloth stitch and twist from the left to right and then what? thanks in advance Micki - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
