A one-page pattern from Godey's Lady's Book for a netted tidy (antimacassar-style cover). It gives materials (No. 4 crochet cotton for the netting, thin knitting cotton for darning the pattern, a No. 7 bone mesh) and explains that the ground is plain diamond netting worked back and forth, with the floral or radiating motif darned in afterward. A photographic illustration shows the finished piece with a light darned motif on a dark netted ground.
