A short note from the Needle and Bobbin Club Bulletin describing how Miss de Neergaard, after seeing a sixteenth-century Italian blue-and-white towel in the Metropolitan Museum's Textile Study Room, designed a modern woven pattern based on it. It mentions modern Italian reproductions of Perugian towels and notes that early pattern books such as Vavassore's (1530) described their cross-stitch or filet patterns as suitable for weaving. Two photographs show the old Italian towel and Miss de Neergaard's woven band.
