Hello All! As a card carrying member of ANG (American Needlepoint Guild), I wanted to share a little item I found on that group's Yahoo list--thread inventory apps for hand-held devices. While I don't claim to be organized to this extent--LOL!!!--I can see where this could be handy. The gal at www.lkreinmiller.com has created Xcel spreadsheets for Anchor, DMC, Dinky Dyes, Silk n Ivory, Vineyard, Caron, Soie d'Alger, Rainbow Gallery & Kreinik threads. They are available for free download on her site & can be synced with hand-helds. Many of these threads are too heavy for us (other than gimps), but the point is--is there a lacemaker who would do the same for "our" threads? Whenever I'm at a workshop & threads are available for purchase, they call my name. So sweetly in fact, that I've purchased the same threads on several occasions! If I could launch myself into the 21st century, I could have my thread inventory at my fingertips. Since I'm not a techie, I'm throwing t! his out for general discussion. As to the lace scarf, I'm intrigued but it's Greek to me! What is stockings stitch? And I don't understand what to do at the end of the 1st Row, nor the section where the crocheted stitch is slipped over the 1st stitch on the needle. Would David or another expert please advise so that I may mark my copy that I've printed? Perhaps there is a picture that could be uploaded to webshots showing the finished item? It sounds like there are strips that are semi free-floating? Many thanks. Sincerely, Susan Hottle, Erie, PA USA recently returned from a needlepoint event at Legacy Village (Beachwood, OH)
