A 1562 German pattern book printed at Frankfurt am Main by Weygand Han and Georg Raben, aimed at stonemasons, silk embroiderers and netters, and offering model designs for needlework and carving. Its pages are woodcut strips of interlace, scrollwork, rosettes and foliage arranged in horizontal bands, showing how one repeating motif can be framed and combined. A designer might draw on the interlaced knotwork and acanthus-style scrolls for borders, panels or lettering frames.
