.... Many do not and faithfully continue follow diagrams for years without thinking about how it all works. They are my concern.
But they are still making lace - for years. Many stay on the 'easy' pieces rather than challenge themselves but they still make lace. Many go on to try more than one type of lace before mastering the first but they still make lace. Many follow the pattern and only do what is in the pattern, never learning to design their own, but they still make lace. They still get the pleasure of sitting peacefully doing a craft that brings them joy. What is wrong with that? There will always be the 'challenge myself' people who need to know why? how? what if? Those are the ones who go on to leading the rest with new ideas, techniques and patterns. Every leader needs followers! Every writer needs people to buy their books. It takes all sorts to make a world. regards Jenny Brandis Kununurra, Western Australia - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
