Wow, her lace is amazing, and I love her use of stitches in the swan and the
ferns. Does Pene Piip, perhaps, know who Helene Kuma is and something about
the Museum of Amandus Adamson, Paldiski, Estonia
Janis in Honeydew South Africa
where we are promised the first rain of the season today.
I have been doing a project with a linen thread that came from a consignment
table. I have no idea how old it is or how it was stored.
There has been a series of broken threads throughout the project... threads
just splitting. It's as likely to happen at the bobbin as it is nearer the
lace.
Rather than having knots in the lace, if there isn't space to work the
two threads together for a while I hang the new thread in and leave
enough of a leash to be able to darn back afterwards - if threads
overlap for an inch or so there is no need for a knot.
