SUMMARY- There are slightly more knit than crochet patterns - and they are all really lovely. There are no token tatting patterns in this one. I found it interesting that Ms. Orr was well known enough that both Coats & Clark and American Thread Co. felt it was worthwhile to acknowledge the designer on the cover of the booklets they published of her work. Both companies are notorious for not acknowledging their designers. I was really pleased to add this book to my Anne Orr collection.
