I don't have the book, but I believe typical Cantu Lace doesn't have any
tallies.

All this talk of Cantu made me go to my bookcase where I have a paperback
book I bought in Venice at the newspaper/bookshop.  It is entitled "l'arte
del ricamo il tombolo" ISBN 88-440-1383-1  The inside cover above the title
has "Associazione Culturale AD MAIORA"   It is all in Italian and I am
wondering what type of lace it is in the book.  It has instructions on
bobbin lace with wonderful closeup photos of how to do the basic stitches
and making plaits, talleys and how to start a pattern.  The section headed
Il Lacoro has prickings and photos of the laces which to me look like simple
tape laces. Does anyone else have this book and can tell me more about the
lace type?
