Well, I've seen pictures of beautiful traditional lace coifs in
Brittany, and with Galicia alone, you have an enormous bobbin lace
industry. And, yes, it has very strong Celtic roots!
Best of luck,

Hello all,
In 2 months I will be demonstrating bobbin lace at a Celtic Festival. Most
of the festival involves music and dance, but the organizers wanted some
fiber arts too, so here I go.
I'd like to find some information about bobbin lace specifically in the
Celtic nations (officially: Ireland, Wales, Scotland, Isle of Man, Brittany
[northwest corner of France], and Cornwall, and some lists also include
Galicia in northern Spain). Can someone recommend a book or other source of
such information? All I've found online is about Ireland, and not very much
of that.
Thank you,
Sally in western Oregon, where the daffodils are in full bloom
