Hi Arachnids My bobbin lace items for now are up to date for now and once we are back from our golden wedding anniversary celebrations and holiday and then I have a couple of items I want to make with the plastic canvas but cant use wool or similar fibres and it makes me cough and choke too much. Can anyone in the UK tell me of a thick cotton fibre which could be used instead please for 7 or 10 holes per inch canvas that will come in reasonable colours for christmas pieces red, blue, white etc. I have no idea what I might even search for. We are very short of knitting wool/fibre shops close to home that I could ask the questions from so I hope someone amongst you will be able to advise me please. I have lots of cotton crochet threads and bobbin lace threads that are just fine but this is rather thick. I did several a couple of years ago in aran thickness so it needs to be able to fill the spaces in.
