David, Did you know that you can work the whole row and then go back and put in all the pins at the same time? That's how I do rows of point ground whether it's just a few pins or a lot. I keep my hand on the worker pair and slightly tension it while I'm placing the pins and it's very fast.

So I'm back to pinning - there are only 7 in each row after all. David in Ballarat - To unsubscribe send email to [email protected] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [email protected].
