David, if you have to "remove and re-pin" make yourself a felt pad that becomes larger in the centre than at the front and back edges, then work onto it (tuck it up under your pricking)
You can them remove the lace, pins and all, and straighten it up on the roller, push down some of the pins, and gradually work off the pad, back onto the roller. I made a length of lace with the pattern hanging out the back, - and started getting it all working to one side. I managed to tweak it reasonably straight, and completed the piece before I ran out of sideways roller!! Regards from Liz in Hot Melbourne, Oz.
