Re: [lace] Winding bobbins with a string

What a wonderful picture you paint Peg, of yucky weather.  Having spent 
a couple of weeks in S E Asia last year I can totally relate to your 
description.  LOL


Cheers,
Shirley T.  -  Adelaide, South Australia where we've had the driest June 
(winter month Downunder) on record.   Blue sky and a warmish sun, if 
you're out of the wind, but alas they are forecasting hail for tomorrow.

I think that the direction we wind our bobbins is determined by the "S" or "Z" 
twist of the thread, not by the type of bobbins being used.

My question - why do you have to wind them anti-clockwise.  I do Idrija all 
the time and wind them exactly the same as I wind all my bobbins.  If you 
suddenly switch direction of the way you wind, you might have difficulties 
in getting used to lengthening and shortening your threads when you are 
trying to learn as much as you can in the few hours you have available.


Malvary in Ottawa where we have had enough rain for this summer.  No lawn 
bowling because the greens were flooded.
