Dear Spiders,

 It has always been a slow craft where the use of a good brain and time is most 
of what is needed.

I do not participate in any other group that is similar to Arachne, but I am 
quite impressed by the nature of the discussions.  We often give the weather of 
our locations, and there is a lot of discussion about methods of lace, and 
where to find this or that which is lace related.  But there is also a lot of 
philosophical discussion.  Personally I doubt other crafters start a discussion 
on how one learns, and the effect of population density on education.  
Lacemaking requires a good brain, certainly the way it is done today.  No one 
makes the same pattern all her life anymore.  These notable brains are 
certainly in evidence in this discussion group.  No need for consensus, but the 
opinions expressed here are well thought out.  

Lyn in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, US, where it's not the beginning of spring, but 
it is getting to be the end of winter.  My daffodils, always late, are poking 
up.  I must go look for my snowdrops.
