In December 2005 I bought a Windows version (says it's for Windows 98 or
newer, but wouldn't like to say if it would work with anything above Vista)
of Knipling (English), and I didn't get on with it. I found it a chore when
it should be a pleasure. It's been sitting in a cabinet for over 7
Hi ,
I have some lovely silk but it is a bit too thivk for a Honiton patten.
If I enlarge my pattern by, lets say, 20% would I have to enlarge the
filling patterns by the same ratio.?

If you want to use the same thread for the fillings as you use for the cloth
stitch and ten-stick then yes, you should enlarge the fillings by the same
amount.

Hi Jean, and all,
I have my copy of Knipling since 2002 with an update in 2009. I often
work with it alternating with Lace RXP, depending the type of lace I am
designing. My OS Windows 7.
I think that while RXP is very good for designing geometric laces,
Knipling is excellent to work with
Dear JJ,
We cringe each time we read a letter from someone who clearly wants to make
lace, because we have worked so hard to eliminate barriers to learning.
You say there is no one nearby to learn from and the nearest person may be
125 miles away. Very often, there is someone closer,
Did anybody mention _http://laceioli.ning.com/_ (http://laceioli.ning.com/)
a site sponsored by the International Organization of Lace where you can
take tutorials, get advice, etc.?

I'd like to take this opportunity to say thank you again to all at Arachne
who helped me when I first started lace. Living in a small country town, no
other lacemakers, let alone teachers around, and just a book (Rosemary
Shepherd's Introduction to Bobbin Lace) to learn from, getting started was
Hi All,
Have wondered if something like Skype could be useful? Of course, one would
have to have a willing person to communicate with.
Started my daughter in Canada on tatting for a particular project. Had sent
her a copy of a book I also had and the rest happened via Messenger, don't
think
Noelene, that sounds like a very good idea, I for one would be happy to sign
up to a list of Arachne members who are willing to help a beginner in the
same way as you have.

Hi Mary Cary,
Last year at Lace at Sweet Briar, we had a class in designing Binche lace which
was done with Skype. Six students worked together in Virginia, USA, and the
teacher was in Belgium! It was considered a success by those who participated!
In fact, the class is being offered again
If such a list is being compiled by someone, please add my name to
it. I'm happy to help any lacemaker with problems and my students know
that they can ring me to talk through a problem as well. Yes, the
smartphones are terrific in getting information to the 'puter which
seems to give
The good part about helping by emails and photos, rather than Skype, is that
you both don't have to be there at the same time. My student can send me
her picture even if I'm not home (or as she often does, late at night -
she's a night owl, I'm a morning person) - I can look it at my leisure and
Clay is right, there are a lot of videos on youtube showing basic bobbin lace.
Tatman has several posted on his website, and also on laceioli.

Also Laurie Waters has collected playlists full of videos on bobbin lace
technique. The problem is that there are almost
Does anyone know of anywhere that stocks Bob-in Soft Rise threads, other than
Bob-in themselves? (They do not take credit cards or PayPal only direct bank
payment, which would apparently cost me about $50 to do from our bank

Dear Devon,
I am inclined to think that the Queen should step in and make a decision.
It is totally unreasonable for tourists to have to travel all over England
looking for Royal tombs.
I loved that :)

They've done something like that in the US - it's called Las Vegas,
and all the best attractions from around the world are there!
I immediately thought of the Josephine Tey book, too. A great story, - I
must see if the library still has a copy, so I can re read it!
Brother Caedfel stories were Great too.
If the remains ere found near Leicester Cathedral, maybe they own the car
park, so can lay claim to the remains. I
