I am astonished that no one has challenged the notion that people with
superior math/science/computer programming skills make the best
lacemakers!! It may be that those who are making the claims happen to
have those skills, but being able to execute a lace pattern is not the
same as making it a thing of beauty, which separates the competent
lacemaker from the extraordinary one. And it take an artist to design
the lace in the first place.
I would like to suggest that teaching children to make lace would
broaden their horizons in many ways, allowing the potentials with which
they were born to develop.
