Nathalie,
Also I am on the lookout for information on the history of lace knitting. I think (though not sure!) that lace knitting started as a way to copy "real" lace by ladies who could not make "proper" lace. Is that correct? Does anyone know where I could find more info?
I'd be looking towards the Shetland Islands for a start. David in Ballarat - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here. For help, write to arachne.modera...@gmail.com. Photo site: http://community.webshots.com/user/arachne2003
