Photostatic copy of a German pattern book of woven designs, made in 1958 from an original owned by a Mrs. Thulin. A Swedish note on page 2 describes the original as a German book from 1691 in yellow parchment containing 120 weaving patterns. Most pages are square-grid pattern charts and drawdowns, many with ornamental or figurative motifs, with a few German (Fraktur) and Swedish handwritten captions and annotations. The title page has a blackletter title and the year 1600.
