From the Downton Lace that I have done, and patterns that I have seen, all
the lace is lengths, not motifs. I've just checked the book I have by
Shelly Canning of Downton Lace from Salisbury Cathedral, there are no
corners either.
So you don't need to have pairs hung on one by one. When I did a course, I
did wind my bobbins in pairs and then rather than cutting them apart, I tied
a knot with however many pairs I needed to hang on each pin to start.
Malvary, from a very, very cold Ottawa where we have broken the January snow
record with 97 cm and almost record cold temperatures, only -18c with a wind
chill of -29c which means that frostbit is a possibility.
