It's a beautiful book, and one of the few that I've kept. The last page in the book is instructions on various stitches, and I'd have kept this book for the description of the detached buttonhole stitch alone, but, for the lover of fine needlework, this is a true feast of the senses.

There were originally six books published (according to the foreword), but sadly I have only this one.
