Hi Arachnes,
I am have been playing around making some bobbins (using unconventional
methods) and I am trying to determine a good weight.  Are there any guidelines
on weight of a bobbin as related to thread size, or weight for various types
of bobbins – continental, square etc.  I don’t have that many kinds of
bought bobbins,  Lacis square – 2 grams (too light); Belgian (light wood-
maple?) – 3 gr; Belgian (walnut) – 6 gr., Danish(?) 5 gr.

thanks,
Sharon (near Seattle, WA, where we have had some sun in the last week!)

p.s. here is a picture of some of my bobbins
http://www.lacemakers.org/meetings/april-2013 – the blue/variegated ones are
4 grams and the translucent/whitish ones are 5 grams.
