Sue, I'm glad you mentioned the "ghost pillow", putting pins in the diagram. That was strongly recommended by Ulrike (Lohr) Voelcker in an Old Flanders class I took with her; she was also strong on expecting her students to understand the lace and do things the way they work best, not just "slavishly" following directions--showing that using a diagram is not contradictory to understanding the lace. Someone (Lorelei?) called her ghost pillow a "voodoo board", a term that ever since I've been enjoying using as I stick pins in it! Nancy Connecticut, where I've fled south to a house with lights, heat, water, HOT water, working stove, microwave...aaahhh. (Power not expected to be restored at home until sometime this Sunday.) >________________________________ > >From: Sue Fink <sarnia...@orcon.net.nz> >To: lace digest <lace@arachne.com> >Sent: Wednesday, November 2, 2011 2:12 AM >Subject: [lace] Diagrams > >Hi All, > >Hear, hear Clay!!
