Hello All! Today is Memorial Day in the U.S., so if you aren't busy with brats & brews, hope you are enjoying our freedoms & making some lace! Yesterday, I worked on lace for the first time since Christmas. Yes, hanging my head in shame. My only defense is that my needlepoint shoe project is done, done, done! I started with that cute little edging from www.kloskant.com, week 45, 2014. Picots & I have a rocky relationship & yesterday was more of the same. What could be causing my "failure to launch"?? Armed with Practical Skills, I used five twists to make a right handed twisted picot. Several repeats later, out come the pins & voila, two loops at each picot! Somehow they are not locking themselves together as shown in the diagrams. Before I aggravate myself with another strip, could someone lend a hand with advice? As to thread, I didn't have DMC so used Anchor. Many thanks. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA! USA
