Just discovered a new lace tool today. I bought a needle tugger meant
for pulling needles through thick fabric and spotted the potential
for pulling pins out of the pillow - I'd use tweezers but it puts my
teeth on edge - it's basically a thin plastic tube you put over the
pin and pinch and then pull out. I suffer from nails that peel and
shred when I pull out any quantity of pins so I think this is going
to save my nails

I use a pinlifter so raise the pins up from the pillow. All the
suppliers, as we know, have them. Alternatively you can make your
own.Get a large darning needle, saw through the eye half way down
and then buff it smooth. The cut end can then be bent, put into a
holder and you get a smaller,smoother end to go under the pin and
between it and the lace. The needle itself can then be cut to fit
into the
holder.
