I wonder if any of the british lacemakers have been watching the Victorian Farm on bbc 2 on thusday evenings or saturdays repeat. Ruth Goodman is wearing the clothing of the time and 2 people living and working in a victorian farm for 12 months. I have been watching her headgear with interest, (sort of like the lappets, but my clothing vocabulary is sadly lacking). Did any of you see it and can you tell me if they are needlelace or bobbinlace? Apart from that, of course the rest of her clothing is hardwearing and very servicable. She was doing the laundry this week and showed the blue we spoke about on arachne, last year and why it was used. Sue T, Dorset UK off to get the dinner served.
