My understanding of starting with bundling is that the bobbins are wound

continental laces.
Then the ABC ABC description applies (also to Honiton as Jane pointed out).

the manner of bundles? (en faisceaux)
If the source is French, I would think there is a French lace that
uses ten-stick or rib so to anchor the start neatly you would want the
bobbins to hang offset as for your ABC ABC, for the
