Dear Friends,
Have just ordered my commemorative bobbins from Chris Parsons! Of
course, being on his website, I also got tempted in ordering his
1000 years of costumes as a bobbin per month treat -there are 24 in
the series so I ordered a double treat of 2 per month-. One can

Dear David in Australia,
My experience is that since the 9/11 attack on U.S. buildings and related
terror incidents, various postal entities in many nations have instituted
screening processes that involve putting incoming packages in holding

I often use a cloth similar to a cover cloth when I'm knitting or tatting... I
lay it on my lap so that I can drop my work into it, wrap it quickly and move
it so it doesn't get tangled/dirty when putting it into my bag. When spinning,
a similar cloth keeps lint and dust off my clothes. Rather than

What's a cover cloth?

Perhaps a small "catalog" would allow persons to pick their need. usually
i buy it all but that isn't always true for others. When i started lacing
about 13 years ago, i bought more bobbins and used antique/vintage cloths.
