I am finding this topic very interesting. I have been maths challenged all my life. Numbers make no sense to me. Only verbal explanations or the written word. I am a mainly self taught lacemaker. I did go to a lace tutor who told me I would never be a lacemaker if I couldnât follow a working diagram and insisted I work only that way. I could not understand and it caused such anxiety I gave up. Some years later I was given some Christine Springett videos which all made sense to me listening and watching and working at the same time. I still work only patterns I can understand or from books with written instructions. Perhaps it is that an ability to understand lacemaking needs an understanding of maths.
