Folio 17 from the Osma Gallinger Tod Studio presents the Spanish openwork weave, a lace-like technique woven on a plain-weave ground using zig-zag weft stitches over groups of warp threads. It gives warp and weft plans, row-by-row directions for four methods, and notes on designing with cross-stitch charts. Most of the folio is charted motifs for lace borders and inserts: baskets, vases, lovers, birds, animals, religious emblems, crosses, and wreaths.
