A small 1885 pattern book of darned lace (darned netting) designs published by J. F. Ingalls, priced at 25 cents. The volume is almost entirely illustrations: engraved and photographic plates of motifs, borders, and edgings worked in darning stitches over a hexagonal net ground. Little or no instructional text is legible, so it serves mainly as a visual pattern source for netting and darned lace.

A late 19th-century American fancy-work manual published by J. F. Ingalls, with instructions and engravings for embroidery stitches, patchwork, darned net lace, crochet and knitted lace, macramé, rick-rack trimming, Kensington and hand painting, and stamping with perforated patterns. It also covers fancy articles such as lamp shades, pin cushions, tidies, work-bags and toilette sets, along with foundation fabrics, working materials and flower color recipes. The last pages carry publisher advertisements for stamping patterns and other Ingalls books.
