Dear Jo, I am familiar with the wonderful website LaceNews and with their YouTube channel, thank you for sharing with everyone! They have done a wonderful job of compiling videos about lace from all over the internet.
To clarify, when I say "limited" I don't mean that there are no videos about lace, but rather that there are relatively few in comparison to say, YouTube channels about makeup. There are thousands upon thousands of people making those, they are seemingly endless, and they can get millions of views each! There are several other channels making videos about lace that I am subscribed to, including for example Bryce Adams: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCc7yf-Bs0tgMWmiITLf-kyA But of course I'd love to hear about others! However, I think there is a lot of room for more lace videos, and there are many lace-related topics that have not been covered in great depth. Also, even when there is good content on YouTube, the algorithm is finicky and pushes what is popular to the top rather than what is more accurate. So when people search for "lace history," for example, the results they get are very short clips from television that are not very well researched, and include misleading or straight up wrong information. That is the problem that I'm hoping to offset by adding more content to YouTube. If anyone else on Arachne is inclined to start their own channel, I would encourage you to do the same! The more the merrier! Hopefully we can flood the world with better information and see a decline in people who claim that we are all "tatting" in the future. :) Best Wishes, Elena - To unsubscribe send email to majord...@arachne.com containing the line: unsubscribe lace y...@address.here.
