Dear Arachnids I am surprised at the comments about preferring stiff wire so that the spangles do not distort. I much prefer wire that allows me to squeeze the spangle across its width so that the beads meet, making the spangle long and narrow. This allows the bobbins to lie closer together a necessity when making Bucks Point which can result in lot of bobbins; I also prefer the way they handle. However, we must feel comfortable using our bobbins and we are all different.
