Dear Jeanette, et al, The easiest way to stop the decline is to put the book back in print. My 'stockist' says it's out of print, and she's out of stock. If you can't get the book, you go on to other laces where you can get the book, especially when there's only one. This is where being

The book itself it not available for free download, at least I would be very surprised if so. The author is careful to point out copyright, and use of the book by individuals. I had a copy once, and sold it. On Tue, Jun 26, 2012 at 12:06 PM, Lorelei Halley lhal...@bytemeusa.comwrote:

No matter how much a few of us enjoy it, I'm afraid Cathy's revolution may be a quirky lace that fewer and fewer people bother with. It is too bad that there doesn't seem to be some way that Cathy could make her book available as an internet download, or self-publish via the one at a time
