A DMC Bibliotheque album by Th. de Dillmont on Richelieu filet, a French embroidery on knotted or machine-made net traditionally used for church linens. The short text covers the tools and thread for making knotted net (netting shuttle, mould, hand positions), how to make square and straight net and corners, and the embroidery stitches worked on it (toile or cloth stitch, reprise or darning stitch, languette). Most of the volume is plates of numbered designs (about 170 patterns of borders, squares and motifs) in white on black. It ends with a DMC thread and colour table and advertisements for other DMC albums.
