Be aware of straws !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
for the USA people under us their should be reading now under the text
"do not do this at home"!!!!!
SO be aware of straws!!!!!!
they can cause more dammage then doing any good to your work
mostly it is of fine plastic/plastoïde material
whit extra harding compounds to make it tough for drinking/sipping
now because of the toughness of the plastic it works quite offen like a
knif on your threads
if you use very fine silks made of flos silk/ continuous silk you can
have very very unwanted fibres cuttings and so you get
some fluffyness on the threads
beleve me a "catastrophe general total"
their is a special silk-knot i learn all people wanting to see it
i promise to put it as fast as possible on the internet to show to all
of you
i do not have a camera so it will be still fotos
all whom i learned it say WOW is it that simple
yes it is and it is a world of difference
some are more underneath their table looking for the unwounded bobins
and rewinding them then making lace
i have the very unwanted feeling that to many people do not know the
basic of lace
they can make binche
vallencienne and most other extremly time consuming laces but the real basic
before you start is mostly lacking......
in most of their minds they are here (in the payed classes) to do lace
not to wound bobbins..........
mostly they do it at home between their patatoe peeling and the
carots-scrapping
that gives an idea of how important they think it is
WRONG WRONG WRONG!!!
it is of the uttermost importancel!!!
that is were the "catastrophe general total" begins
and not the sice of the bobin
the color of the bobin
the extra head or what ever
nope
no no
i promise to put the fotos on a website this weekend
it will be in english, well you knwo my english (Belgo-beneluxenglish)
but you will nderstand
kind regards

That's what I used the straws for but it didn't work for me! Perhaps the
bobbins we use here have necks that are too thick for straws, but yesterday
I came across two straws which are much thicker than usual, so I washed them
and kept them to try again!

That is an excellent video of how to do hitches.
I have used the split straws when using a metallic thread, - when the thread
had a mind of it's own! It worked very well.
