Oh dear, you sound like me....take one book and stick with it until you are
certain in your tracks.l I have had people who buy a collections of books on
ebay and read them all..trying to use them all...and what a mess it usually
is. Not always , but usually. It is always best to stick to one path thru
the woods. ;-)

I would caution any brand new learner not to use both books at the same
time. Both are good, (the Torchon book being my favorite), but because
Southard's book is slightly different - it could cause much confusion in
a new learner who doesn't have a teacher close by.
I'm speaking from experience - I'm self-taught and tried to use both
books. I know others who tried to switch back and forth and gave up
bobbin lace all together because of it. I was just too stubborn to give up!
