First Things First
You want to make lace?  Great. 

I started making lace in my early 20s and it's been such a gateway to both a passion for making lace and a gateway for meeting people and learning other crafts.

Get Your Equipment
I've added advice here on the lacebee as well as on Rothwell Bobbins

Get Support
​As with anything, getting a support network is essential for most people and when it comes to lacemaking, there are some fantastic resources out there.

A friendly, new group.  Started in 2020, Beginner Bobbin Lace Makers is dedicated to helping new lacemakers gain help, confidence and advice.  

Experienced lacemakers are also members of the group and offer support and help.

Regular online meet ups are also arranged to help keep everyone in touch and share ideas and advice.

​An established group which welcomes both new and experienced lacemakers.

​Bobbin lace makers offers a place to share ideas and get advice.

Another great group to share your ideas and projects.

If you love the tools of your trade, then you will adore Find the Maker. 

Dedicated to documenting modern bobbin makers, the group is a place to share bobbins of those makers you know and to identify the bobbins you don't know.
