Please ignore me :o) I was talking rubbish due to not having read enough
of the earlier emails and have actually upturned a pillow that got knocked
over with great success - although 16 pairs isn't that many, really.

Using gravity doesn't work! I tried it when some bobbins I was winding
tied themselves in knots. The bobbins spin and the spangles tangle up and
I think I actually made it worse :o)

Hi Tamara and Andy,
I also can sympathise! I can remember one Lace Day several years ago when
one of our members had stopped the car quite suddenly, the pillow fell on
the floor of the car, and we all took a turn at untangling the threads.
And we didn't finish it either! One interesting thing did emerge from that
experience though - one Bright Spark said that an easy way to untangle
threads would be too turn the pillow upside-down with the threads and
bobbins hanging. They would then almost untangle themselves - gravity was
the force mentioned, I believe - and that would be that! I can see that
in theory that may work, but how does one flip it all back upright again,
without doing similar damage all over again? Even said Bright Spark didn't
have the nerve actually do try it ...
