Interesting to know what it means.  In my experience the word 'bolletje'
gets used untranslated in both German and English lace books.

The word (bol/bolletje) just describes the shape of the motive. Bulb would 
be quite close.

RE: [lace] bobbin winder

[Sue]

Micki, I have a pair of "birdcage bobbins" they are midlands with four
bead spangle and from the bottom bead a circular cage consisting of four
bands of seed beads with a mother of pearl bird suspended in the middle,
hope you can understand this.  They are useless for doing sewings but
very pretty nevertheless.

Happy lacing

Hi Shere'e

excuse my ignorance, but what is a birdcage spangle, and what else would 
constitute a fancy spangle?

You can't do fancy

spangles like Birdcages or anything like that however if you use a simple
loop spangle it works fine.

I have one very much like this one and I simply rotate the spangles up along
side the shaft and put the shaft end into the holder. You can't do fancy
spangles like Birdcages or anything like that however if you use a simple
loop spangle it works fine.
