  1. Last weekend, #BobbinLace demo in #LexingtonMA, a mathematician came up to me + intensely watched weaving 4 strands of silk. It was funny, but I totally got his interest.

    The diagrams in the article would take me 30 seconds to make in lace.

    The 92-Year-Old Mathematician ...

  7. Yesterday we picked up our lace pieces from the Fiber Arts display in a local library (Morse Institute in #NatickMA). When they invited us, we also suggested to them some books and items for their library to have. That's one way to defeat #AIslop beginner books--provide access to legit books.

    But they also added to their #LibraryOfThings a beginner lace pillow setup! We are very psyched. Equipment is hard to assess as a beginner.

  8. I bought my #schwibbogen before I was a #lacemaker, and of course am now kicking myself. I could have had the #lace pillow one. Someday....

    Here is the #BobbinLace one, with the toy maker, and what I presume is a gay couple in the center, via Wikimedia Commons.

  9. Whoa. A #BobbinLace chair. With actual #bobbins!

    [image description: the black metal frame of 4 legs and an open seat and back area looks a little spidery. The seat and back fabric is a bobbin lace with diamond motifs. The headrest of the chair is a bolster pillow with pins in the back and the actual bobbins hang down behind.]
