US, or approximately 2, 2.25, 2.5, 2.75 mm, etc.) are only available in Europe
or the UK.
Does anyone on the list know of a source? Inox used to make them. I can find

I will be traveling to Honiton in September and am trying to figure out how
much time to allocate to the town. As far as I can tell, the All Hallows
Museum and the Honiton Lace Shop are the sites of principle interest to the
lace visitor. Is there anything else of a lace nature that I should
Wow Brenda! You are in the know! I went to their site a couple of days ago,
figuring that if anyone had them, they would, but didn't go into kits!
