[lace] Re: carpal tunnel
Hi, Thanks. Yes, I am going to physio and have some exercises to do. I also use a magic bag and the heat helps and I wear a brace at night when I sleep. It is very annoying and frustrating! Oh well. Have a great day and stay safe! cheers, Shelagh On Wed, Apr 14, 2021 at 9:10 AM Sue Babbs wrote: > So sorry to hear about the carpal tunnel.

Re: [lace] Happy Anniversary
Hi I, too, joined Arachne many years ago. After a 15 year absence I have taken up bobbin lacemaking again. It is great fun to see so many names I remember from years ago. Everyone was very helpful and I learned a great deal from people on this list. My favourite types of bobbin lace are Torchon and Bucks, but I have also done some Honiton and Chrysanthum. Next I want to try Idrija and Milanese. Unfortunately I, too, have developed a pinched nerve or Carpal Tunnel syndrome in both my wrists so I now limit lacemaking to 15 minutes at a time and then take a long break. Sigh! It has been a great activity to help pass time during this difficult time of lockdowns due to Covid. Happy lacemaking.
