RE: [lace] Re: Bundling bobbins
This has been an interesting thread. I'm puzzled, though. Why would you want to spend so much for what a rubber band would do? And why would you want to bundle your bobbins in a bunch like that anyway -- wouldn't they get very mixed up and result in a lot of wasted time sorting them? I'm just curious. I love the Flemish laces that use a lot of bobbins. If I'm traveling, I use crochet strips or the flat wooden tongue depressor type bobbin holders; if I'm working, I stack the bobbins up in groups on handkerchiefs, napkins, paper towels, what ever is handy. Both methods work, and the bobbins stay organized. And certainly a lot cheaper than this new method we're discussing. So ... what am I missing here? Well, the bands **are** a very pretty color, maybe htat is it?

RE: [lace] Re: Bundling bobbins
Thanks Pene for that information I have never seen them before but have looked on the site and found 3 outlets that stock them in Norfolk UK so now I can check them out.

Re: [lace] Re: Bundling bobbins
Hi Agnes and everyone I think that would be the price per package. In the Lee Valley catalogue, they are item EV140; 6 for CAD16.50. They are made of silicone, can be reused many times, can go in the freezer, microwave or oven - heat resistant to 357 C. (675 F) that should be hotter than any bobbin needs to be (eek). Each cord is 13 inches long; they can be linked together. Although they are for trussing food, they would be interesting for bundling bobbins!
