Bands from Hans Hofer's New Formbuch'len
Augsberg 1545 Lot 18

 

Item Price: $14.95

Hofer's book falls into a group of early design books, those printed using woodcuts. They were books of illustration, not instruction. Title pages often illustrated different artisans at their work and gave the impression the designs were suitable for crafts other than textile embellishment, but it was assumed one knew what to do with the patterns contained in the book.

For each band two charts are included if the design requires only a simple journey and return journey in double-running stitch. If side journeys are required detailed diagrams in both black and white and color are also included.

Charted and plotted for reversible stitching.

By Linn R. Skinner.
