Hi Shelagh, I had carpal tunnel problems in both hands, and had surgery on both. The first surgery was the standard ligament release with a long incision -- it healed up tight and I occasionally have problems still in that hand, plus it was a long and painful recovery. The other wrist was done

Hi I, too, joined Arachne many years ago. After a 15 year absence I have taken up bobbin lacemaking again. It is great fun to see so many names I remember from years ago. Everyone was very helpful and I learned a great deal from people on this list. My favourite types of bobbin lace are Torchon

I joined just after the first anniversary. That's when I got my computer, and the first thing I typed in was 'lace'.  I learned so much from the List. I just finished a Binche project from a class I took about 15 years ago.  When I pulled it off the shelf, it was 3/4 done so I've been working on
