Hi Arachnids Most lacemakers think of me as a puristand basically I am, but when I'm teaching I encourage experimenting with different numbers of twists etc. However, that does not allow you to be ignaorant of the 'standard' technique. You cannot modify a stitch or number of twists unless you have something to judge it against. Learn your standard techniques first then use all the judgement you have to adapt them and make your lace as beautiful as it can be.
