Morning Modelbuch (6/18/2018)

Snails. I think they’re adorable. I know many gardeners with roses who will be horrified by that, but I like them. Especially in embroidery. They show up a great deal in the later swirling patterns that turn up on jackets and coifs but not all that frequently are they charted. So this lacis pattern in Vinciolo is a bit unusual. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/665393. I also included the snails with peapods from Scholhouse for the Needle and a snail from Trevelyan’s Miscellany because well, snails.
