Well I did it!! The sun was shining, all your mails behind me, so I prepared a pricking, and step by step I started making lace! Just a simple fir tree fan," I had full step by step instructions in Stotts "Bobbin Lace Manual" The book I originally started making lace with. I really needed the "hanging on" "starting and "footside" directions, but my fingers remembered the stitches. After the first repeat I just had a quick glance at the book for the second repeat, then I was away. I have prepared a second pricking of a handkerchief edging which also features the "fir tree fan" but larger along with a half stitch trail. There are less instructions with that.
The "Running River" pattern has been temporarily put aside when I realised there were no corners in it. Didn't feel equal to designing a corner or working out how much extra to work to go around them :) Don't even remember where that information is! Angela Simpson.
