K, so I tried the broomstick lace thing, and its waaaay cool looking. Fortunately, someone was in my house who had done it before, since I hadn't printed any driections- she could tell me I was doing it right.
My one comment on broomstick lace though- if you try it and like it, I recommend sanding down a wood rod in the size you want and lightly rounding off the end. Once is smooth, rub in some wood polish to make it lightly slick. MUCH easier to use than a size 50 needle.
