SUMMARY- There are no tatting patterns in this one. You get the typical black-and-white photography of the period. Instructions are in the usual teeny tiny print that gives me a headache just to look at. There are some lovely crochet patterns in this booklet, some filet, but nothing for tatters. I include her other booklets when I run across them so you'll know if there are any token tatting patterns lurking on the back pages.
A lot of pattern booklets came out during this time period (between 1912 and 1925), so there must have been pretty stiff competition for the household budget for such things. Ms. LaCroix was one of the ladies who didn't put a copyright date in her books, so I have to guess at a year.
