I'm sorry - I'm going to say how much I love them. I can go into a nice trance working them and be thinking of anything else or watch a film.

But then, I love the routine of working buttonhole stitch which is probably why I love needlelace.

The only problem is I rarely get enough TIME to work eyelets properly as there's always a million other things that need doing on a gown which seems to be a never ending list!
