Work on the main section of the pillow, starting with the movable section at the top, out of the way, letting you be closer to the working area of the pattern. As you work down the pillow and the bobbins start falling off the bottom edge, place the movable section on the bottom to give more bobbin room.
This lets you work more of a pattern down the pillow before "moving up" than if you didn't have it.

There are usually a side drawer in the base, and an end drawer at the end of the base pillow part. The attachment has 2 wooden pegs that fit into holes in the top or bottom. One might think that you would just work the lace onto the attachment at the bottom, take it out and it fits onto the top so you can keep working. But this won't work, the pegs are in the wrong place. You'd have to turn the attachment around to get it to fit. So what exactly is this attachment for? How do you move the lace on the pillow?
