It is a small world when one shares an interest with others.

If you enjoy doing something, it does not require so much patience.

[rekamecal]

The more you learn about something, the easier it becomes!

[hillel70]

I crochet and must saw that this is CRAZY hard and takes a lot of time. I admire anyone who has the skill and patience to do this kind of work!

[Katsudoo]

I adore but the lack of focus when the camera moves in makes the details they're trying to point out impossible to see. That said I adore this video. It's very informative.

[mrsflibble]

omg so THAT's how I join motifs!!!!!! thank you so much!

[princessofdonutland]

this is a stupid question, but is this what a size 14 (.75 mm) crochet hook would be used for O_O

I have one and would like to use it.

[Sandraneidin]

Yes a .75 mm crochet hook is ideal for traditional Irish Crochet Lace. You will need no 60 or finer (80, Or 100) crochet cotton.

Haply lacemaking,

Nora

Beautiful, but these small stitches must be terrible for your eyesight!

[Sandraneidin]

Good light is the most important tool when making any kind of lace. When it was made in the Poor Clare Convent in Kenmare the nuns had windows in the roof of the workroom. (Kenmare needlepoint lace is even finer than irish Crochet Lace) This was because the climate in Ireland does not lend itself to working out of doors as it does in other places such as Italy or France.
