Hello Joke and everyone thank you for sharing the link to Kate Davies's blog.
First off she has a nice blog and I love knitting...the entry for Gawthorpe is excellent and I like her description above the lace pillow photo: "You could imagine her having just left the room, to take a break from her lace work." As has been pointed out Kay Shuttleworth was forthright in her opinions, an example seen in the photo two down from the lace pillow. A wondering out loud, to the list in general: I had another look at the photo of the pillow, would RKS have left the room with her lace bobbins all jumbled like that? (ok, maybe that's *why* she left the room...!), or are they left in a jumble for museum reasons, 'artefact as found' ?
