Thanks for all the recommendations of where to buy books. But I guess I didn't make myself clear enough. The main thing I was asking for what which books I should be looking for to learn Binche, Mechlin, Valenciennes, Point de Paris etc. Like, are the books by Vera Cockuyt any good? I have the book on Valenciennes by Annick Staes, and I will see if I can figure any of it out this weekend, but I find it hard to get around in the book, since it has 4 languages, so have to page through quite a bit to get to the next instructions....I guess maybe I'll copy the English pages and put them in a binder, might be easier to find my way around.
I am probably going to have to wait a while with buying any books, unless I can get them from our one and only Canadian dealer, since our dollar has dropped considerably against all currencies, like the Euro was worth CAD$1.32 a month ago, now it is over 1.40, and the pound was around 1.90, and now is over 2.00 (and 6 months ago it was around $1.60). It's the reliance on oil export that is killing our economy right now. But in the meantime I would like to know which books are good for learning these laces. I have been burned before with buying books that ended up being useless, one of the detriments of not being able to see the actual book. *Marianne* Marianne Gallant m...@shaw.ca threadsnminis.blogspot.ca - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
