Dear Lace friends,

I have learnt bobbin lace / needlelace *only* from books and from advice on
Arachne.When I first started BL, Jeri gifted me the following 4 books:

Christine Springett's Lace for children of all ages
Christine Springett's Torchon Lace book
Pamela Nottingham's Technique of Bobbin Lace and
Bridget Cook's Practical Skills in Bobbin Lace

The last book, though you will not need it at first, becomes indespensible
later on for self-reference

Best wishes
Sulochona in Ranchi, India
