I know I’ve mentioned Helen Hough and her wonderful research, the Charted Embroidery Patterns of the Renaissance project before (because she’s mentioned me and my research. :p ) She’s gone through the books and recharted all the graphed/counted patterns, removing duplicates and compiled them. Its a fun flip through especially with pages like this with unicorns and yales and gryphons. You can download a copy of the whole collection on Archive. https://archive.org/details/CEPRDesignElements2016
