Lacemaking Tools

Every lacemaker will tell you that the tools they use are one of the joys of lacemaking. The most important are the lacemaking bobbins the pillow and the pins, but there are other tools that are used that help a lacemaker to produce good work easily, and each has their place in the workbox.

Prickers, Pin Vices, Lazy Susans, Crochet Hooks, Needle Pins, Divider pins, spacers, Bobbin Holders to name but a few. Every Lacemaker has their favorite tool, the one they wouldn't be without. I'll be adding more as time goes on so do keep calling back to see what's new.

Lazy Susan - Purple Heart Wood 

This is the first in the range of Purple Heart Wood Lacemaking Tools, the Lazy Susan is in the same design as the Lacemaking Bobbins in the same wood. Of all the lacemaking tools, this is probably one of the most useful. Approx 4 inches in length, it is highly maneuverable to help you do sewings and finishings neatly.

Ebony Pin Pusher/Lifter 

These Pin Pusher/Lifters are the pencil grip style and are an ideal two in one tool. Many Lacemakers seem to prefer this as you can sort out your pins either by pushing or lifting all in one session as you need to move your bobbins around rather than having to use two separate tools.
