Re: [lace] 's Gravenmoer and a bolster pillow

Thanks to all who answered my question about the bolster pillow for ’s 
Gravenmoer.

I have let my friend know how supportive you all were.  Now we will see what her
decision is for convention.  

Diane - your picture is pretty awesome.  Makes want to do a project that is a
little larger than the bookmarks and Christmas ornaments that I have been
working on.  Maybe one day soon.

Thanks again.

Re: [lace] 's Gravenmoer and a bolster pillow

I'm currently working a 's Gravenmore scarf using a bolster pillow. The 
pattern is and adaptation of Susan Wensel's scarf from a workshop she 
gave in Sydney in 2013. I have over 70 pairs and since I'm using a thick 
silk thread it is about 8 inches wide.


May I say it is working well and for a scarf I would not use anything 
other than a bolster or wide roller pillow. So to your friend all I have 
to say is go for it!! If you love a bolster then the 's Gravenmore 
will not be a challenge except if you are learning it new.

I have a friend who wants to take the class at IOLI convention in August, but
she has always worked on a bolster pillow and therefore feels most comfortable
that way.  She doesn’t want to request the class if it isn’t possible.

Thanks for any help.

Jane,I did.  It wasn't a scarf, but it was a piece of lace about 6 or 7" wide
for a bonnet.  Below is a link to my pillow in action.

I made a 's Gravenmoer scarf using a block pillow, but I am sure that a bolster 
would work just as well, if not better!  Most teachers will advise if there is 
a strict requirement for a class!
