Materials: Braid; Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Mecklenburg thread No. 20. Trace the outline upon paper or leather, lay the braid on as directed. Work the centre in Sorrento bars, and on these work a rosette in point d'Angleterre, the edge in point d'Angleterre edging, and the wheels in open English lace.
