SUMMARY- There are six tatted yokes in this booklet - the vast majority of the patterns are for crochet and filet crochet. None of the tatting patterns really jazzed me, but they are solid designs. The Yoke in One or Two Colors incorporated the zigzag stitch, and that is as sophisticated as they got. Again, there was a full-page ad for "The Modern Priscilla" on the back cover. I've been slowly working on a collection of TMP, but they tend to be a little pricey. Reproduction copies of the Priscilla tatting booklets, however, can be had fairly reasonably on e-bay from Iva Rose Reproductions. I've bought several of her reproductions and been happy with all of them. She does a great job of restoring.
