Crochet Lace
Should I buy the book on lace clone?
I am Irish and love Irish crochet, crochet is a craft that I loved all my life. There is a book available on a specific type of lace called Irish crochet lace clones, the famous lace with a special node called a node clones. The book is rare and very expensive. I would go ahead and buy it, but there are very few books out there and it around $ 180. With Barnes and Noble, it is $ 180 and with Amazon, it is 180 plus shipping and handling $ 3.99. They sell quite quickly and I will have to use my student lend money to pay at least half. My husband will not like me spending that much on a book, however. What should I do?
Check interlibrary loans. Your library can access, in many cases, all libraries across the nation. Check things like http://www.calcat.org/ Check the Amazon used book sale. http://www.amazon.com/Clones-Lace-Story-Patterns-Crochet/dp/1856353834 buy used for less than $ 11, see above list. Find information on the web that is in this book: http://cloneslace.wordpress.com/about/ Talk to your husband, please, get that first book: The Enemy Intimate Bach. It will facilitate communication and help everyone, not just the troubled situation, using normal good time.
