You can even knot the ends of the metallic thread to the cotton leader, as
one would in Kumihimo work.
I hope the rain doesn't keep the crowds away from your exhibit.

Subject: Re: [lace] Question concerning metalic thread.
Just a quick thought... if there's problems getting the metallic thread to
start on the bobbin, try winding cotton thread down the length of the
thread area first, to give the metallic thread something to cling to.
There's no rule that you have to use a bare bobbin.
