Dis-Torchon Patterns
All the patterns are my own design.
All the Dis-Torchon patterns are printed on pricking card.
They are all sold
with a picture of the completed lace. A working diagram and information
about threads and the number of bobbins used is included with each design
Dis-Torchon patterns are worked using Torchon techniques and are therefore suitable for anyone who is familiar with Torchon lace.
Although this lace uses Torchon techniques it is not drawn on a 90º grid and therefore cannot be considered to be true Torchon. It is worked on a distorted grid and I therefore call it Dis-Torchon. The resultant lace looks very different from the usual Torchon lace.
I have used the same motif in Torchon and Dis-Torchon patterns and the difference in the two styles can be seen by comparing:-
- Torchon Edge No. 4 and Dis-Torchon Edge No. 1
- Torchon Edge No. 5 and Dis-Torchon Edge No. 2
- Torchon Mat No. 4 and Dis-Torchon Mat No. 1
The Dis-torchon patterns include:-
- edgings (these are all hexagonal because of the nature of Dis-Torchon Lace)
- hexagonal mat
- small hexagonal motif
