Subject: Lace section is very neat

I saw the book in real life at the Boston Public Library. It consists of some text in the beginning which is properly scanned here. But the rest of the book consists of fold-out patterns that are nearly a foot long. I don't think those are scanned properly for this version. You might be able to get the gist, but they aren't quite right if you want to reproduce the patterns, for example.

It's a really unusual book with the fold outs. I've never seen one like it.
