Well done video Mike and David! A very interesting approach and I like the way you use the pins for support on the side threads. Haven't seen that way before. I am going to give that a try. A lot of hand action, but whatever works! Though not so much more hand action than normal lacing.
I work tallies on the pillow with the palm of my hand holding down the bases of three passive bobbins and my finger tips on the heads of these bobbins. The fingers make the passives lift up and down like a weaving loom. The weaver easily passes over and under. I don't use spangled bobbins for this technique. And sure helps to have bobbins with a point. Here is a partial explanation of how I do it. Partial because a few of the pictures don't load. But the instructions are still there. You get the idea. http://tatmantats.wordpress.com/making-a-leaf-tally/ I had to chuckle at the celluloid/cellulite comment :-D -- Mark, aka Tatman blog: http://tatmantats.wordpress.com/ Tatman¹s Online Shop: http://tatman.etsy.com email: tatmant...@gmail.com On 9/11/09 6:59 AM, "David C COLLYER" <dccoll...@ncable.net.au> wrote: > Dear Friends, > Mike has very kindly edited the video of me making a tally in bobbin > lace, and placed it on Utube for your edification.
