Day 147: Bobbin lace is generally done with very fine threads, but that's not to say that you can't use heavier materials as well. This little coaster-mat is a good starter piece for the novice and more advanced lace-makers will find that it can be worked in a number of different ways on the same pricking. Done at this scale (#30 crochet cotton), it is easy to see how the lace forms. Fourteen pairs of bobbins are required and the finished mat is approximately four inches square.
