David,
Yup, I could have fixed it once I got home (certainly not in the 15 minutes left in class), but I was too much of a wimp at that time to try. I don't think I even had reverse forceps yet, much less hackle pliers. Now I'd rather start a fresh piece and keep this one as a souvenir!

You're telling us that there was no way to fix it - hmmmm. No chance of using a pin to undo a couple of passes then something like Hackle Pliers to tie tiny knots on the wrong side. I think I would have tried something like that after all the work involved. David - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
