Gentil Spiders, 
I have a crochet motif sweater that I paid a pretty penny for from a shop in 
the French Quarter made of rayon thread.  At some point I had to wash it, and 
many of the joining knots undid themselves and proceeded to unravel.  
Apparently the maker (in China) didn't leave tails, then work them in properly, 
but tied a knot and snipped off the treads.  So I had to tie on a piece of 
thread to get enough tail to work with, then recrochet the motifs as best I 
could.  Grumbling most of the time.  I'm not so fond of the sweater now - 
afraid it'll unravel on me at any given moment.

How this applies to BL - probably making the lace would be OK, but if you have 
to join in new threads, beware your knots!
