And on a related theme to Carol's request for ideas why one lady's hitches won't stay even though using the same thread, bobbin and method as the rest of the class, has anyone got any thoughts about why just one or two threads out of 40 or 50 on a pillow untwist and run the risk of breaking.
Malvary had this problem when she was here last and I have encountered it on my own pillow and on those of students. Sometimes it's a worker, sometimes a passive (Malvary had one of each), there seems to be no obvious difference in the bobbin (ie there's another - same make, same spangle on the pillow which isn't affected), no common stitch (ie not always in half stitch or always in ground), and however diligently it's retwisted, as soon as you take your eyes off it for a moment, it's separated itself back into two or three plys and is trying to "jump". Jacquie, looking forward to Malvary arriving and seeing lots of you in Bristol. - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
