I started with various types of lace from various books, not realising there
were any particular styles. Torchon wasn't included. Now that I started
teaching I start with Torchon after a few simple braids.
Some day I found a good affordable sampler explaining the most important
Torchon elements. I realised I had to make it myself too and started
halfway: The start was simple enough to be able to guide my students and I
needed to stay ahead. I started at a point that looked less straight forward
and where I could work outside in when I reached the end. The sampler
however had a border only along two sides. One student asked for a border
all arround. So I looked around for other borders with new elements and
added that to my sampler. No way I could work outside in any more, so now
I'm stuck with a sampler missing an odd center. I'm afraid it will remain an
UFO.
