A Victorian pattern booklet of tatting edgings and insertions designed from Greek and Roman lace, published in London in 1861. It opens with notes on materials and rules for the double stitch, pearl loop and a new method of joining that makes tatting firmer. Written instructions with engraved illustrations follow for Scallop, Florentine, Oeillet, Etruscan and Gothic edgings, Venetian and Etruscan insertions and a Venetian border, with thread sizes and crochet headings. It closes with advertisements for the author's other publications, including The Tatting Book.
