As this is definitely lace related I'm moving it to arachne to answer. I have a book titled "Making Lace with Little Grey Rabbit" by Dorothy K Cox. The subtitle is "A graded series of bobbin lace patterns inspired by the Little Grey Rabbit stories of Alison Uttley and Margaret Tempest (by permission of the publishers, William Collins.)" The book is A5 size, paperback, 58 pages, copyright Elviston Press 1993, ISBN 0 9522709 0 0. There are 27 patterns each with a pricking, some working instructions and a black and white (no grey) photo with a drawing from Little Grey Rabbit superimposed. The designs are Torchon, braid lace, Russian tape, Beds, Cluny, Swedish and Bucks point. Most of them are edgings that need sewing on to fabric. My summary is fun beginners stuff for kids, but quite suitable for adults too.
