I have the 'horse shoe' and use it often.  It doesn't raise the threads high
enough to inhibit lacing (even picots) but does keep them from rubbing on
pins.
It is easy to move around, and very easy to 'add' after you have started a
pattern.
For the price it is a gem.

  thanks for the reply.  i didn't think anyone had mentioned it too often
  here, so it must not be very popular for a reason.  the acetate did
  sound like a better option.  it would be easier to push the pins in and
  work over the lace than to try to pull the thread  a little higher over
  a wedge.  i don't see how i could do a picot very well with it, but
  then again i am not very experienced either.  the cover cloth would
  seem to work nicely, but how would i get all those bobbins inside the
  whole without getting them tangled!?! i'm not sure i could do it that
  way.  both ways are cheap enough to try.

  thank you!!!
