I'm in the process of starting the Shiffu bracelet on pages 22-23 in
"Schmuck Parures".
The authors are Anita Dajcar-Florin & Catherine Lambert. Published 1997.
Has anyone else made this bracelet?
I'm trying work out if there is another way to add the beads.
I was also wondering if it can be made without adding & taking out a
pair when
starting each new diamond shaped section.
This book is in German & French hence the title. I translated the French
section to find out
that Shiffu originates from Japan and Nepal, is made from paper so it is
supple & washable
but doesn't have a lot of body like linen & is used to make traditional
clothing.
Does anyone know anything about this fibre?
I couldn't find it in Brenda's "Threads for Lace" book.
Maybe it should be included?
Thanks in advance,
Pene in a wet & cooler Tartu, Estonia
