Many charts.

Lots of patterns for Chinese borders. Within some of the borders are small figures which can be used in other tapestries. For rugs/tapestries there are medallions of fish,money, a phoenix,a Foo lion and peony. Other rug patterns include a pony, an elephant, flying cranes,vases of flowers. There are colored photos of completed works; I found it a very worthwhile book.
