I buy it from Roseground Lace, based in the Uk but they post worldwide. It is a matte one and available in blue and grey. There are other Uk suppliers as well, some have it in orange but I find that is too bright to be comfortable to work on.
Since I am new, I have many questions: when I am done with bookmark, what can I do to keep it in good condition such as do i mix glue and water to stiff it, or what is best suggestion, etc other question. I asked same question in facebook, about bobbin pins which pins do I use for certain threads, or designs, etc other question: how many bobbin pins or pairs that I need to put in. general rules. not sure how I explain this
Thanks for the questions. There’s lots of ways of finishing a bookmark to use it, but generally bookmarks don’t need stiffening. You can buy plastic bookmark sleeves from suppliers to slip it into to protect it and keep it clean. Pins, as a general guide, thick thread you can use thicker pins and finer threads, finer pins. However for the majority of lace I do I use 0.5mm pins, and they work well. The only exception, is where I am working a very fine piece and might want the holes smaller in keeping with the scale of the lace. (A new angel pattern I am about to release was working in fine 0.4mm pins.) Asking how many pairs you need to add is difficult to answer without knowing the type of lace etc. Often patterns tell you how many pairs it takes, particularly for beginners, or look out for a beginners books to help you learn some of the basics.m
Another fab video, so clear and helpful
Thanks for the feedback, hope it helps everyone struggling with the pattern preparation.
where do you find that sticky back plastic? I can only find opaque plastics which obviously wont work
