Wonderful Noelene.
This is a phenomena of lace that I am just beginning to see and truly
comprehend.
Lovely the way you set it to verse.
The disappointment of breakage when you move from one size thread to the
other is very real.
Nicely done. I enjoyed it very much.

Subject: [lace] The Torchon Tug
The Torchon Tug is an awesome force
To keep all those passives in line.
If they start in to waiver all over the place
Just give them a tug and they're fine.
A Point Ground Pull is a different affair.
The thread is so fragile and thin.
A Torchon Tug here would wreak havoc galore
And probably pop out a pin.
Bedfordshire lace is a class on its own
With techniques to avoid any grief.
Give a good Torchon Tug to tighten a trail
But watch out when making a leaf.
'Cause a leaf in this lace needs the greatest of care
In keeping the tension just right.
The first thousand leaves are the worst I am told
And I only make two in a night!
