I made a wee!lumpy!doily!
The wee lumpy doily lifesize - about 2inches in diameter. In some dimensions. It's got picots (the small loops) of totally varying sizes, twists, extra stitches, dropped stitches, and I ahd to unpick and retat the last inner loop four times before I got the right number of sitches and picots, and attached it correctly. Whee!
And closer, so you can glory in the awfulness of my knots and loops.
And this is the Evil Orange Nemesis that made my cat piddle on the floor interror rage. It was night, and through my screen, and the camera insisted on focusing on the screen and bouncing the flash off it, and the cat left before I could get the camera adjusted properly. So it shall remain evil and shadowy. And fluffy.
(I have a photo where all you can see is blurry gray and white from edge to edge ... with two glowing pinpricks of PURE FLUFFY EVIL, but didn't bother to upload.)
And here is my cat, all fluffy and big andscared brave, sniffing at the screen veeeeeery suspiciously, because she knows that PURE FLUFFY EVIL is lurking outside.

Re: "The Bobbin Lace Manual"
It may be a bit before I get to it - my mom seems insistent on getting me into kumihumo braiding for some reason, possibly because she got a foam-core er, thingy to use to do it at a weaving conference and is tired of looking at it, and I think her Christmas plans involve leaping onto me brandishing the thingy until I learn to use it in self-defense. And I realized last night that in that case I could probably braid a bunch of badge lanyards and sell 'em at A-Kon, touting the Authentic! Japanese! Technique! (Maybe. We'll see. :D)
But I still have that "Ooooh! Bobbin lace!" thing going. XD
