Following Jane Partridge’s comments below that when the index is done, all you 
will have to do is look at the index to see what is exactly in each issue. 

I would like to say that as the volunteer who undertakes the indexing of Lace, 
I am not behind and would add that I indexed Lace 169 yesterday (I received it 
on Thursday) and while it won’t be on the website right away the indexing is 
pretty much up to date.  However, there will be no way that you can search for 
a specific item such as the gold frogged item from the way the current index is 
set up as it doesn’t identify everything that is in each article.

We are working on ideas on how to make the index more user friendly with a 
search features.  We will probably start with making the patterns more easily 
searchable. Once the format is decided, then we will be looking for volunteers 
to go through back issues to index the magazines in more detail.
