I believe that these patterns are available at their website... and I suggest you use the "tiny url" that Noelene so graciously sent us: http://tinyurl.com/8gslc3 Clay hottl...@neo.rr.com wrote: > To Clay! Thanks so much for posting the Retournac photos!!! As a newbie, I'm sick to death of bookmark samples. But these--well--they are so--shall I say-- tres chic! Truly works of art. Sort of the Emeril Lagasse-ified version--BAM! In your honor, I started a little Mirecourt piece today. It took forever to wind the bobbins with 1.5 hands--but--I've got it started. So maybe the endless hours of hand & finger therapy exercise will win out. Thanks again for the inspiration. I'm looking forward to the prickings/diagrams. Is there a link?
