I was taught to make needlelace without using a pillow, and did all my City and Guilds pieces that way. When I came to try it on a pillow, I found that hard and have never adapted to it. I guess it's like learning on Midlands bobbins and then someone suggesting you try continental - or vice versa. Hard!

An advantage of not using a pillow is that it the lacemaking is even more transportable and can be worked on in odd places (back to the top of the mountain standing in the snow!)

For those who want to try Needle Lace, and don't really want to have to get yet another pillow, it is very possible to do Needle Lace in your hands.
