I just saw this in the new Patternworks that came to my house yesterday and wondered if anyone has tried it. I think it might make my hands less sore . I don't have any problem with thick yarns but this linen flax is so thin some how and seems to be hard to work on my hand in a way. Other lace work I have done seems the same. I would be interested in seeing if anyone else has used this and if it works.barbara

I have no idea about the gadget, but people have suggested working with linen flax slightly wet; apparently the wetting softens it.

Thanks Tamar. Well I have heard from one person on this gadget who stated it broke the first time she used it. Guess I am back to hand cramps! I only get them with thin thin yarn.....
That would be maddening to have it break on the first use. I hope she got her money back!
Umm, are you new to rcty? If so, welcome! If not, forgive me not noticing you before! ;o)
Peace! Gemini
