This is not the only problem. Sometimes the title of the book is changed,
plus the ISBN (which is directly tied to the publisher's name) if a
different publisher is used This is terrible when you are not allowed to

I have a variety of styles of bobbin cases now but when I first started making
lace I made my own roll up one as shown in an old book. I used pre-quilted
fabric, just turned up a pocket and sewed the sections for the bobbins. When
it was rolled up it was huge :-) Never made that one again!!

I sent this yesterday but never saw it appear on the List, so here it is again.
I haven't seen formal instructions, but I have seen a variety of bobbin cases,

I prefer the holders that zip around 3 sides, but when I want to see
or display my bobbins, I use the sheets that are made to store strips
of film negatives. (I don't know if they're still available but if
they are, it's a lot easier than making your own sheets.) They're
made to go into

Sorry - I wasn't hinting that you shouldn't email the comments. Didn't mean
that at all - just that there had been enough emails to make me curious
about it. That's the trouble with brief emails, they can be misunderstood.

Hello All! I've been following the digest the last several weeks but haven't
been able to make lace since the 1st week of Nov. when I broke the ring finger
on my right hand. Nasty spiral fracture, stainless steel pins just recently
removed still can't close my hand. So I must enjoy your

OK, Susan...
I was full of pain and compassion for your discomfort and misfortune
with the broken finger, but that part about the chocolate covered frozen
key lime pie on a stick... well - that was just too much. I think that
in penance, you should send each of us a share of it...

Great idea Clay but it wouldn't last 2 seconds in Oz. 41 deg C forecast

frozen key lime pies on a stick. :-)

I have been busy knitting too - having made sweaters for my husband and son
for Christmas. The one for my son was so much liked by them both that I have
bought more of that yarn to make one in it for my husband. The yarn is so
soft to the touch and a delight to knit, but you have to keep it

Well they say that knitting is the new Yoga! It has become very popular in
recent years. The Internet is great for yarn buying if your local town does
not yet have yarn shop which stocks anything other than acrylic furry stuff.
(Yes, I an a yarn snob!!)

hALLO lACERS.
I AM GLAD THAT YOU ALL HAD A NICE FESTIVE SEASON AND ARE NOW BACK TO NORMAL
tHANK YOU FOR THE MANY REPLIES.
