The shop moved from Linköping to Vadstena some years ago, it is likely to have limited opening hours at this time of the year. The shop in Nordiska Museet in Stockholm may have something of interest, and ordinary handicraft shops may have Swedish linen thread and bobbins. Many years ago I saw lace from Karelia at the National Museum in Helsinki, but the exhibition is likely to have changed several times since then.

RE: [lace] Finland and Sweden
When I was in Stockholm some years ago, I made a daytrip visit to Vadstena, where I found two excellent lace supply shops. I believe the Swedish Lace Guild has a shop in Linkoping which is also within a daytrip of Stockholm. The shops in Vadstena were well worth the trouble of the trip. There's a Folk Museum in Stockholm that has, or had in 1999 I should say, a display of folk costumes with quite a bit of lace on them. My husband and I had an excellent dinner at Tre Fem Hus in the oldest part of town. Wish I was going!

[lace] Finland and Sweden
Dear Arachnes, My husband will be in Helsinki, Finland and Stockholm, Sweden this coming weekend. He has about 1-1/2 days in each city. Are there any lace shops or places that he could visit for me in either city? I did look at Lacefairy's site but it seems like most of the lacemaking centers are in other parts of each country. I wish I could be there with him but it just wasn't possible. Thanks for any suggestions, Cindy Rusak - in grey Wisconsin - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
