Torchon Bookmark with Trails


I did a bookmark with trails when I had some beginner's lessons, and haven't done another since then. I took the pricking from the class, reduced to fit #80 tatting thread, and added 3 repeats to the length.
I also added a passive pair at each edge and changed the center from ground stitches to a small spider.
It was tough getting started, but I think I'm doing okay now.
I can see I need to be a little more careful when I set the center pin on my next spider. Ahem.
I've been doing bookmarks from the same book, and now I see it's time to expand my skill set.
