> >> Pricking card
>Tamara said >Any gift-box, dis-assembled and covered with transparent, coloured, >plastic film will do just fine Jane said I teach my students to use proper pricking card (glazed manila) and a waterproof pen. I must admit to coming back to proper pricking card. The photocopying of and then covering a pricking with film is very easy to do but I really come unstuck when doing sewings. I use a lazy susan, it might be different with a crochet hook, and almost always end up with the business end stuck in the pin hole and making a mess. Pricking card being so much sturdier makes sewings a lot "cleaner" and easier. This is more important for sectional laces with a lot of sewings. jenny barron Scotland - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
