La dentelle Torchon de Cholet : Volume 2, Perfectionnement
In this second volume, the authors make us better discover the bobbin lace world made of simple stitches and repeated motifs. 26 patterns explained by clear instructions, colored photos and natural size charts.
The town of Cholet was famous in the XIX century for its napkins, linen fabrics, flannels, calicos and laces. The Torchon lace made of continuous threads with repeated designs is the simplest and most-known lac in the world. The threads have a precise, mathematical and geometric path you cannot but follow. No matter if you use 20 or 200 bobbins: once you learn the basic stitches, you will know everything about this lace. You can make a lace whose final decorative effect is immediate and astonishing. The 21 original patterns with colored pictures are explained by detailed instructions, charts and natural size designs.
