Jane, Mary and the Spiders, This thread brings sparks a great interest in me! One of my class has the most awful trouble with threads unwinding, and nothing any of us can suggest makes any difference.
Most of my class members use my threads (?) and the bobbins the lady is question uses are Richard Ives' - I have lots of his, and I and the rest of the class have no trouble at all but - this one lady seems to spend all her time rewinding and rehitching threads. So I don't think it can be the bobbins, or the threads per se - we must all be doing something incorrectly! Which, of course, is very aggravating for her! We have tried extra hitches, which works until one wants to lengthen the threads, winding the 'wrong' way ie. counter clockwise, and whatever the rest of the class suggests but - no joy. Can I prevail upon you all to give some answers to this? I will await the replies with bated breath! Thanks to you all - Carol - in Suffolk UK - looking forward to Sheringham Lace Day on the 9th April!
