Thanks for that line "Teaching is teaching" Alex, it prompted me to start
writing again.
Teaching Lacemaking.
Teaching is just teaching
Whatever subject might be sought
But if you become a teacher
By your pupils you'll be taught.
Take the task of teaching
Lacemaking from the start
You'll find yourself presented
With new ideas to take to heart.
"Why are there two twists there?
Why can't you work uphill?
Why don't my pairs remain the same?
Why is my fan a frill?"
So then you have to puzzle
Work out the reason why.
And not just do it without thought
'Cause it's pleasing to the eye.
And the pleasure gained in teaching
Passing on this noble art
Is worth the time and effort
And gladdens every heart.

Happy lacemaking and teaching
