I too wondered what wire vice thread means, I've never heard of it. Did you
mean using wire versus thread?
Using wire does need a bit of practice. The one bit of wire BL that I made was
a shapeless mess but some people have achieved good results.
As others have said, just Google 'wire lace'
When we looked at the College of Wooster in 2004, for our son, there was an
embroidery shop in town which sold bobbin lace equipment. Maybe it's still
there - if so there probably are local lacemakers. Unfortunately, it wasn't a
good match for him, so we never saw the shop again!

I don't know much about using wire but I was making a flower yesterday that has
to be gathered after laced. I decided to use wire in one area to stiffen it
and
it turned out pretty nice. The other threads were DMC 40. I used 34 gauge
wire
for this. It is the first flower in Flower Fantasy
I doubt I'll make it. That's a 2-hour drive away from me :(
