Geklöppelte Kugeln - Bobbin Lace Balls by Ann E. Wild Kulmbach (D) 2006, 152 pages, paperback, 17x22 cm, text German and English The book gives instructions for making 18 balls in tape lace. The first chapters describe the materials and methods, the rest bobbin lace tapes and balls.Some of the balls are wonderfully transparent and delicate, others are colourful and almost solid in appearance. Some look right on a Christmas tree. Others are better on mobiles or hung in a window. The balls are just lace and are made in one piece. Prickings for tapes and balls, coloured working diagrams, thread diagrams and instructions make the lacemaking easy. Most of the balls are made with just a few pairs of bobbins, which is good for beginners too!
