I found a website that makes little cupcakes from old sweaters. The
instructions are here:

I also found a pincushion that is knitted in garter stitch. It
doesn't look exactly like a pincushion, but you might be able to fudge
the pattern and co
Thank you Lenore. I like the idea of making a pincushion out of an old sweater
but I'm still wearing my old sweaters. I could try raiding my hubby's cupboard
but everything is grey, brown or beige not exactly cupcake lookalikes. Perhaps
the local charity shop?

Hello Alessandra,Anna is discontinued - all we have now in Germany is the
Magazine "Lena" that is somewhat similar (but not my cup of tea - if there's
anything about bobbin lace in there, then it's prolly very crude and simple
Torchon patterns).
Best from Berlin, Achim.

Hello All,
I don't think Anna is discontinued, I know it has been published the
September issue, in German.
Here at Taranto, Italy, as I've written to Alessandra, I can't find it since
long time but I've read in a message sent to another list that Anna
has changed editor, now is edited by a "join"
Sorry, Achim, there is a august or july issu of Anna.

Hello Tiziana,
Anna came out in Germany till the beginning of the year. Some people
with get a short note and money back from Burda. Others not. But in
my class in Blackforest some body had the new Anna, august or july I
didn't see it, with her.
Best Google Burda and have a look.
Greetings
Hello all Arachneans,
I have just returned from my holidays, and I would like to tell you
some lacey information of my trip to France, as I had the opportunity
to visit Bayeux, to see its museum and to chat with an important
lacer: Mylene Salvador.
For those not very familiar with French lace: Ba
Hello ,
I've found the information a lady in German gave to the laceknitters list
about Anna :
now is published by VCP Vikant Crafts Publishing GmbH, a join venture
Burda-Vikant, a company based in Illinois (USA).
Now in the newstsands, at least in Germany, there is the September issue,

I would love to take up my needles and make all those fun foods but I have
new lace projects to start. Perhaps when I am 101 years old I will do the
knitting then. I did find one site that sold cupcake pincushions and they are
lovely but a bit more than I want to pay just now.
Thank you to everyon

Hello all
I went on the Burda website this afternoon and found the magazine Anna
Burda, which is available on subscription, but only in Germany and
possibly Switzerland.
Maybe we should bombard Burda with emails and complain about its demise
outside of Germany.

Dear Lacemaking Friends:
I also subscribed to Anna for many years but they told me it was no longer
published in ANY language! So they substituted Lena for me. It's nice and
okay but it is more for doing other things than lace in my opinion. However,
the latest issue does have a little bi

Dear Knitting Arachnes,

I counted 13 on embroidery on the shelf, and 3 on unusual knitting. In the

Dear Lacemakers,
Does noone remember we discussed Anna and Burda at great length - in late
2006 or early 2007? In the U.S. there were 2 magazines: "Anna" and "Burda".
It was explained that because of the death of the founder, one of the
magazines discontinued. Quite an interesting biography

The Flanders book has been spoken for.
'Laces of the Tyrol' is still available. Although the text is in German, it
is mostly patterns, traditional laces of the Tyrol/Tirol. They are all
edgings or insertions, some appear to be like freehand lace. They are
rather pretty, and hav

Suggestions, please, for Bayeux, Ca
