A pattern book of shuttle tatting edited by Julia E. Sanders, with abbreviated written directions for several dozen numbered figures. It opens with an explanation of stitches and a section on modern tatting, then gives patterns for edgings, insertions, beadings, hat trimmings, collars, doilies, a centrepiece, a table scarf, pillows, a jabot, an alphabet, a library scarf, bags, an infant's cap and a baby bonnet. Many photographs show the finished pieces, and the back page advertises other Priscilla needlework books.
