An annotated bibliography by Brian Lemin (December 1998) of books and articles dealing with lace-making bobbins, plus spangles, beads and bobbin making. It is organized into sections: historical English works, continental bobbins, spangles and beads, and bobbin making (mostly woodturning magazine articles). Each entry gives a citation and the compiler's candid comments on its value; it closes with a request for additions and the author's contact details.
