Well, give it a try... *grin* The first time I taught that class, the Hochdorf technique bit was a disaster - turns out you need more tablets than in the sample pack I handed out. The directions as written are correct, just the equipment was wrong. As for the patterns, I have copies of those "translated" into the more common (and in my opinion easier to work from) grid-slash patterns. I'll put those online tonight or tomorrow. I hadn't actually intended to announce those pages publicly, so did put up any explanatory materials. > Thanks for the fantastic website Phiala - it's one of a handful of sites > which has totally changed my view of early textiles... Thank you for the wonderful compliment! I need occasional positive reinforcement to inspire me to work on it and add new material. :) Phiala Sarah Goslee http://www.stringpage.com -- __________________________________________________________ Sign-up for your own personalized E-mail at Mail.com http://www.mail.com/?sr=signup CareerBuilder.com has over 400,000 jobs.
