Hi Shirley,
I also use my office chair which I can adjust for height, but I don't always

Hi Shirley!
I also use an office chair. But it turns out that just *any* adjustable

Hi,
I've been following all the responses on comfortable positions for
making lace and am surprised that no one has come up with my solution.
I use my wheeled office chair with adjustable height, angle and back
support. With my feet firmly planted on the ground (I suffer from short

Hello All! So glad this question came up! Most chairs do not provide proper
