Not strictly lace but you might like to know if you are travelling to convention in Denver this year, check with your airline regarding baggage allowance. AA have reduced their 70 lb allowance to 50lbs on tickets issued after March 1, 2005. Overseas is still 70lbs. I assume other airlines might have done the same thing. I also checked with the US Government Security web site to see if knitting needles are still allowed on internal flights and they are. Here is the web page for items allowed or not. http://www.tsa.gov/interweb/assetlibrary/Prohibited_English_4-1-2005_v2.pdf I still have to find out what weight I can take on my flight to France next month as we are connecting from Heathrow to Gatwick for our flight on British Airways To Toulouse. BA seem to allow only 51lbs on flights other than to the US and further destinations (whichs is still 70 lbs). Maybe I have to unpack some stuff and leave it in England. :-) Knitting needles were not on the restricted list on the BA site so I presume I can take my knitting on board again. If you know different please let me know. Janice
