This was GREAT. good explanation, perfect speed (slow enough that I could follow), perfect camera height (I could see the bobbins and where they go), encouragement about errors, honestly this was just what I needed.
Wanted to get into this but didn't know where to start, glad I found this lol
Beware bobbin lace is addictive and one looses sense of time. “Just one more repeat” etc. Unfortunately I got stuck on a piece and haven’t got back to lace making. Inspired to start again . Fantastic idea on making the necessary tools!
Loses time ... Loose is not as tight. You can lose your pants if you loosen your belt. My English teacher still haunts me.
I'm just starting with making lace and honestly your tutorials are saving me. Especially how you explain stuff slowly and repeatedly. Thank you so much for making this hobby affordable and accessible
That pillow idea is genius!
I love the ~wiggle~
I was looking at Slovenian Lace (a rabbit hole from Eurovision to Slovenian rock band Joker Out to their costumes from 2023 which were adorned with lace made locally) as a craft and finally came across this....
Thank you!!!
Hi fellow traveller, we have fallen down this rabbit hole together lol
I once did a lacemaking course in Switzerland. They made it so difficult....keeping it exclusive. The teachers scared me to death. It was a pity. Seeing your tutorial brings things back to memory, and I did learn something, I guess. I went to the Swiss course to enable me to identify lace.
Wiggle Wiggle makes it seem less stressful.😅
Wiggle wiggle right?? There’s always people that get mad at me for that.
I have been interested in trying this for a long time. I just didn’t want to buy the bobbins until i knew i like it. I knit, crochet, sew and tat. So adding a new craft means more supplies. I am so glad to find your video using stuff i have around the house.
This is very helpful and interesting. I can finally understand how someone can get so fast moving the bobbins. That being said, moving the amount of bobbins around does make me dizzy. Thanks for sharing your excellent video.
I love lace and bought myself the whole deal a couple years ago. You would think that living in the netherlands i would be easy to find someone to teach me. But no not where i live. Even tried through the guild. No luck. Bought a dvd too and gave up. So now thanks to you i might be able to really understand what i need to do. So thanks a million
If you live near the border to Belgium, try there. I've Googled it online and there are many classes here.
I hope that you're gonna find some classes as it might be fun do this in a class (although, this vid is already a great start, I think).
Altijd welkom in België. 😁♥️✨
I am from Australia but have lived in the Netherlands for 11 years. I always thought Europe would have craft and supplies but no, you cannot buy anything here... not like Australia where you can buy everything. I have always wanted to learn bobbin lace since I saw a Nun doing it on a train in Sydney Australia when I was 17, but I need someone to teach me in English. So glad to find these tutorials... may finally be able to try and learn.
Thank you for doping bobbin lace again. You make it easier to understand the basics
You’re welcome
This is so great! I've watched your bobbin lace videos before and I even bought a book with patterns to eventually start with this craft, but the supplies are kind of out of my price range... Thank you for showing we can make this makeshift equipment! I can finally put that book to good use. :)
That’s great! Glad I could help out.
Love that you are continuing to teach us bobbin lace, especially at this time when we are asked to stay at home ❤
Thanks. I figure most people are home and what better way to spend the time than learning some bobbin lace.
Over 30 years ago, I used to do bobbin lace; it was so good to refresh my memory while watching your so well explained tutorial'
Oh very clever. I have all this. Thank you. I will try! Wish me luck.
Good luck!! You can do it!!!!
I tried to learn this about 30 years ago from some craft class and I'm telling you, what a mess. This is so well done. Taking it so slowly and explaining and showing as you go is extremely helpful and telling us the reasons why we're doing what we're doing. Thank you
You’re welcome😊
Thank you so much, it's mother's Day at 5am. I learnt to bobbin lace. Thank you for your inormative video.
Ma’am you are amazing the care and thoroughness is shining through two years later
I am very happy to have found you and your video! In 2010, my friend in Germany told me to bring my bobbins and she would show me how-to - I made a bookmark and love it, although it is messy for my first attempt. However, since coming home never again touched my bobbins. My curiosity had been satisfied - but, now - watching your video, I can feel myself wanting to try this again. Wow! Thank you.
My memory just realized that I don't have a pillow - and thought it was necessary to have a fancy pillow in order to do this craft. Now you have shown that I can use a regular pillow with a zipper cover - and that can take away a fear of not having the materials needed. I love bobbin lace - and maybe will get back, due to your video. Thank you very much. You have fed my soul.
Good idea! When I started I used a square of styrofoam insulation, placed inside a pillow case. it worked great.
I now have a lovely roller pillow.
Thank you for this video! a couple of decades ago, I joined a guild and was learning bobbin lace. I can't remember why I stopped perhaps the health of the host. I'd forgotten how peaceful the rhythm is. I may need to pick up my bobbins and dust off my pillow for some refreshers.
Thank you so much, I was totally confused with Spiders and Rose Ground. This video helps me a lot. Thank you for taking the time to do this tutorial. You are awesome!!!
You’re welcome. Glad I could help
Thank you for this tutorial. At this time I can't afford the bobbins, but now I know I can use clothes pins! Wonderful! I've watched other bobbin lace tutorials, but yours is the best one I've seen. You have a new subscriber. Thank you again.
I find them all the time in second hand shops.
My great-grandmother used to make bobbin lace until her eye sight got too bad for it, so it would be kind of nice to try it myself. And now I can, without investing in anything but some thread. And who knows; if I enjoy it and make something pretty and useful, perhaps I will then decide it's worth getting the real kit. So thank you for sharing!
And for your information: This was not just one of my crazy ideas that never happens - yesterday I jerry-rigged a board and some bobbins and actually made the first of the squares in your video. And it WAS as easy as you said... (My result was uneven and ugly, but the technique is simple.)
I’ve heard a Honiton lacemaker say that if you can count to three, you can make bobbin lace.
Thank you so much for the easy to follow steps and tricks to start on the cheap. I was on the verge of ordering an expensive kit. Now I’ll go shopping in my own house for all the supplies I already have. But, some day when I feel comfortable following patterns, I want the pretty bobbins!
Thank you for this. It is an excellent tutorial! 👍
Phantastische Idee, mit Klammern zu probieren, wenn man Klöppeln lernen möchte. Seit 38 Jahren ist Klöppeln mein Hobby, aber ich bin für Tipps und Tricks immer offen.
The clothespeg idea is genius!
Wow! I always heard this was really hard. You make it look possible. Using the clothes pins makes me feel like even I could try to make lace. I am just learning to make battenburg lace. This popped up and it's amazing! Thank you...subscribed too.
I have been longing to try bobbin lace for years. You made the starting process entirely accessible! I was happy to buy the pattern used in this video. Thank you so much!
Благодарю Вас что делитесь своим творчеством, очень интересно.
I have seen many videos on bobbin lace I will say yours is definitely the best I have seen. Excellent!
Thanks for the excellent tutorial!
I've never done this before so I was watching it to get an idea and I was so invested that when you say the red dots weren't out of the pattern I gasped and said "plot twist!" like it was a reveal 😂
Wow, this is SOOO cool. Love it!
Thanks again, very helpful
Great video and the idea of using a close pin/clothespin/clothes peg instead of a bobbin is very useful !!!
Thank you for this lesson! I’ve never done lace before. How do I store my lace when I’m done making these designs?
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and skills!
Thanks for this tutorial! 15 years ago I went to an open air museum where I saw a woman doing this craft. She even let my try for myself and it was a lot of fun.
I never picked it up myself though because the equipment is expensive and difficult to find where I live. Time to finally change that. :D
I couldn't buy bobbins near my place. Had been looking for an alternative, I'm glad I found you!!!
Amazing tutorial!
This is avery valuable video to me. Iam from Sri Lanka and its very difficult for me to find those bobbin lace supplies.Tha nk you.❤🎉😊
Your tutorials are seriously amazing!!
Beautifully explained- thank you!
Thank you so much. I understood everything such a good tutorial and using every day things is awsome.
Thank you for this site. Your explanation was very clear and helpful. I like that you zoom in so we can actually see the pattern and how the work is done.
This is fantastic, thank you SO much.
Thanks for your beginning bobbin lace classes.They are very helpful cw
Thanks Canadian lady!
Very therapeutic! Thanks for sharing your knowledge. Hope i get the courage to start doing it myself lol
Excellent tutorial! Thank you!
I suppose I should thank you for your useful videos. :) TH-cam kept bringing up one of your older videos to my suggestion list. I'd been aware of bobbin lace for some time, but wasn't sure I wanted to invest the time and effort into learning. A month ago, I decided, what the heck - as I needed something new in my binge-watching. Now I am going nuts. :) I did end up ordering two sets of plain bobbins from Snowgoose (took only two days to arrive!) because I didn't want to try to figure that part out. Ended up needing a couple more pairs - where our extensive LEGO collection came in handy. I already have a huge stock of threads. The pillow was the hard part - I didn't want a huge one because I'm already completely out of storage. I pulled out my old Quilter's Cut & Press, which is hard plastic on one side, and slightly padded on the other - just enough to hold the pins. Then, I can prop this up on any combination of other pillows and cushions I need. It works fabulously! Then, my husband showed me how to turn our drill press into a vertical lathe, and now I'm working on my own bobbins (I'm able to get an extensive range of woods from work). Yes, I'm crazy - I do this will all my crafts!
Oh, and BTW, from an experienced knitter: I find knitting much easier to undo - fewer hand motions. But that's me.
Good for you getting all set up. And making your own bobbins. That’s awesome!
You remind me of Shania Twain. I LOVE Shania Twain 😊😊😊 This is excellent!! Thank you so much for doing this 💛💛💛💛💛💛
Thank you for reminding me about Snowgoose! I've got a project in mind that they will be _very_ helpful with.
Oddly, I somehow remember Rose Ground worked with Half Stitches. Could be faulty memory, or a slight variation of technique.
You have a great way with teaching... I'm just learning and looking forward to watching more 😁
You made it Easter for me to understand thank you
Excellent video, excellent explanation. Very grate pace. Thank you for creating and sharing this video(s).
clear simple instructions for a skill I have always admired but thought too expensive to start into...thank you :-)
You are an excellent teacher!
Thank you so much!
Awesome. Bobbin lace has always seemed to overwhelming to attempt, but this makes it seem manageable enough to begin some sort of attempt.
You r really great to use clothes clips
You explained so well.Thanks alot
Thank you so much
Hi..i'm from algeria
.i love bobin lace but there's no supplies here to do it (learn) ... happy to find this video ..now i can do it ...thank you veru much ..🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰
This is phenomenal. You are the first tutorial I found and you are an excellent teacher. I plan on getting the clothespins to start. I’ll also need to find some patterns. Maybe a simple bookmark to begin with.
Adorei sua explicação
Parabéns pelo trabalho 😍💓
You are a very clever woman. 😀 I started with pencils; this is sooo much simpler. It also shows the advantage of square bobbins in that they tend not to roll.
Thanks. Glad you liked this.
I'm curious about how the resulting lace would compare. My speculation would be that the string wouldn't have the freedom to twist, or un-twist as naturally, and so the finished lace might be a bit warped in places, but I haven't tried it. Maybe it doesn't matter.
to the comment about fixing mistakes in knitting (at about 27:00) most of the time fixing mistakes in knitting isn't too hard once you know what you're looking at. the worst mistake is usually dropping a stitch, which starts to undo previously ok rows if you don't fix it. otherwise most mistakes just cost time undoing the knitting to get to them.
i seen others say the 1 is a cross (name of stich) and the 2 is a twist.
so its cross, twist, cross.
cross is always to the bonbin moving right. the twist is always moving to the left..
don't know why they all emphasized that..
just sharing..
Thank you so much for sharing this with us.. l am getting back to lace after 25 years.. your laymans terms make it so much easier for me to understand.. l have many books still ,but understanding was difficult 😥.. your instructions are amazing 🤩
I cannot begin to tell you how much I appreciate you and this and your other videos. 🙏🏻 thank you thank you thank you!! I have watched this and rewind and practice so much- it’s gold! You are an incredible teacher.
I have used this in companion with a lacis kit I picked up unopened for $5 at my craft thrift store.
For those wanting to trace the patterns- I have a light pad and light box but it was just as simple to screenshot the pattern on my phone, edit the pic by zooming in and cropping. Then I turned my brightness all the way up, and traced the pattern onto a one ply piece of tissue- 🧻 ☺️ you can use tracing paper, one ply of a white napkin, white tissue for wrapping, maybe even regular paper.
Anyway- I then just pinned the tissue to my green card stock and pricked it with a pin. I happen to have collected over time some corsage pins, and assorted other pins. I’m using the foam that cane with my lacis kit but not on their very weak cardboard frame, but simply over the top of a foam pillow I have in the shape of half a circle. I still have to work out my setup better but this works for learning the basics And practicing.
I am using the thread that came with this kit but it’s quite annoyingly hard to use because it keeps wanting to come off my bobbins. I think maybe these skinny style bobbins that came with my kit hold finer thread better and maybe the dowel size ones I’ve seen work better with a larger size thread.
So thank you once again for making this video and I can’t wait till I am capable of buying some more complicated patterns.
yes, this is the best!
I’ve wanted to try bobbin lace since I saw it done in Brugge 28 years ago but could never figure out how to do with with the books I bought. Thanks so much for this tutorial. I can’t wait to try it.
Thank you!
Thank you so much! ✨✨🙏😊🤩
You’re welcome
I have been looking for bobbins everywhere. Either employees look at me like no clue what bobbin lace actually is or they know but do not sell the bobbins here. When I get the money, I'm going to order the kits I have found online. For now, I'm going to send my husband to the store for some clothes pins. lol. Thank you so much for this.
You’re welcome. I know. A lot of people don’t know what bobbin lace is and it’s not like they sell the supplies in the big box stores. When my lace teacher and I would work on it at the craft market, tourist’s would walk by and say oh look they’re doing cross stitch or some would say tatting. They’d leave and we’d look at each other and just roll our eyes. Lol Thank you for watching. Good luck with your clothes pins!
helpful video and fun to watch !!!!!=
I am so stoked to try this! Always wanted to learn bobbin lace but was discouraged by the price of the pillow and bobbins in case I didn’t like it.
Thank you werrymach miss👍👍👍
It's funny, I came across another one of your more advanced videos and I was not able to follow, although you explain very well. But when I saw this video, wow, you make lace making look easy!
Thank you
I did not watch this just came straight here! Tessa ☆
This is just amazing how you explain it! I tried through books and other video tutorials to understand it but this is the first time I understood, what is behind it and how it works. Thank you very much :)
You’re welcome! Glad it’s helped
It almost like a dance: 1-2-3, Pin, Wiggle, 1-2-3, Twist
That’s a beautiful way of putting it. 😊
This is so AWESOME, Thanks for Sharing such a great idea and making it easier to understand.
Thank you for this video, very helpful to see if this is something I would be interested in without making the commitment of buying so much supplies! I do have one question, though; how do you finish off? Thank you! :)
I love your ideal economy and my hometown don’t have shop Seles this items
I imagine cross stitch floss would be too smooth to hold shape and to weak to last.
Actually, the first bookmark I did was with embroidery/cross stitch floss. It will hold the shape very well, because that's all in the twists and loops, but it is very slippery. Strong, but slippery. So the bobbins like to wiggle free and fall, and unwind to the floor.
Clothes pins would help in that case, but I switched to crochet cotton, which is working extremely well for me in my latest round.
Hi from Utah- thank you for this video, I was having a hard time understanding the rose ground and spiders. I was wondering if you would make videos of the #3 and #5 in the book Bobbin Lace without a teacher. It is the little book that is in the kit from Snowgoose. I would sure appreciate it as I know others would too. I watch your videos over and over again, you are the very best teacher. I'm so glad you are back. Thank you, Lynda
Hello, I’ve never attempted the patterns from that book but perhaps I can try them this fall and get a video up for you.
Dear Tanya, I have been watching you for a long time and thought it was really cool that you were in an advertising for those magnifying lenses you tried out a few years ago! Another friend of mine said they used her in the add as well but with out her permission! I just wanted to let you know what's going on! I saw the video on facebook! She also said it wasn't even the same brand ! So hopefully you can do something to get it taken down if it's not legitimate! Take care,Tessa ☆
could you do some Bruges lace . You tutorial is so clear and easy to understand
Happy Birthday!!! 🎂🍨💗🎁💗🍰🎉
Thank you so much!! 😊
You're welcome! Thanks for this tutorial! It's great! 💗xo
Aside from this. You sound so much like Sandra Bullock.!
But these crafts are amazing to do. I like to draw, but anything that requires so much patience and skills is good to me. Or as you know how people say, "In my book you're okay" or "That's not good in my book"!.
this reminds me of micro macrame. looks similar to it but no knots.
Great tutorial! Have wanted to learn for years. How do you know how many yards of "warp" to use for a lace project?
Hi from Puerto Rico i love your videos can you please make a video how to make a pair of bobbin lace earrings please ty maggy.
I to have Murphy(Murphy’s Law)moments like that where I’m trying to get my stuff done to go home on my early day and I get numerous calls and orders seemingly at the last minute or at least the last 30 minutes that I may have to act on.
Lol, had to rewind before you explained how to cuz when you said ‘bring down the center pairs’ I realized I used the wrong pair one turn prior! 🤦♀️ Thank you for walking me through my very first attempt! I’ll watch/try the rest tomorrow!🎉🪅 ...maybe you said as much & I missed it, but I found it immensely helpful that I’d already read that twists were always Right over left, and crosses are always left over right. Also since it’s my first time I used different colored threads to keep track! I’m so happy I finally tried this after thinking for a decade that it would be ‘too hard for the likes of me!’ 🤦♀️🤷♀️
Could one use embroidery floss for bobbin lace? If so, what ply?
