Summary: 5 Stars
I must say, I found this book to be very easy to use for someone like myself, who has just begun learning to make bobbin lace. Clear pictures and clear instructions has assisted me greatly and with very little frustration while trying to learn this fine art. This book takes you from winding the bobbins and into lace patterns that gain in difficulty gradually, allowing you to work through the book, while developing your bobbin lace making skills. This book is a must have to the person wishing to learn bobbin lace making!
Book Review: Expected a little more..
Summary: 3 Stars
Good book with a great deal of helpful information. I was looking more for the fine thread lace, whereas, this book goes beyond offering projects such as scarves using knitting yarn. Great beginner book, but not much more than that. If you are looking for traditional lace, this may get you started, but may frustrate you beyond that. All projects are organized, easily built upon for level of experience, and the instructions are easy to follow, with photos. More of a modern flair.Book Review: Beginner's Guide to Bobbin Lace

As a teacher of bobbin lace, I find this soft covered book by Gilian Dye and Adrienne Thunder a nice addition to a beginning student's library. I would recommend it to anyone who wanted to learn the basics of bobbin lace without formal instruction. Gilian Dye and Adrienne Thunder are well known in the bobbin lace community for their talent.Book Review: Wonderful guide

This book has marvelous illustrations and written directions. I just started learning bobbin lace with another book and found this was a valuable addition. Without the luxury of an experienced lacemaker looking over my shoulder as I learn I've had to rely on books and this one really was a quantum leap for me.Book Review: Good Book to Start With

I am new to bobbin lace and purchased this book to help me learn. I found the step by step instructions and photos to be very helpful. The scale patterns have also made it easy to get started and create my own versions of the patterns shown.
