Jenny,
Thank you for the use of your website again. I especially like your lace title

I have a couple of comments on the discussion of the word database.
1. One book, especially if it's a history or instruction book about lace (or a
type of lace) is likely to have the terms repeated many times throughout the
pages. Remember, the graphs show the number of times the words appear,
I think the probable explanation here is that in the 20th Century, odd
lengths of machine made lace were referred to as "tattings". This is
also the more likely reason why, when demonstrating, we get so many of a
certain generation insisting that we are tatting, when in fact we are
making bobbi

been the location rather than the timing. I originally come from the
northwest, but was living near Greenwich, London when I went to classes.
Neither of which has a tradition of lacemaking to affect the naming
Hi one and all

Hi Brian,
Although I am not able to collaborate with you, because I don't have nor use
the bobbins you are studying, I am also very grateful to read all you are
writing, as I had never thought there could be such a variety of one type of
bobbins. Thank you very much for sharing your investigations
But Brian you've now got more than all of us!!

I have just shared this in a private email but I thought I would pass on
this thought to you "guys" (In Oz this is both M and F) as it is something
