Editor’s note: The three printings have different yardages and hooks. The initial printing of Decorative Crochet #66 calls for a US size 7 (1.5 mm) hook and 530 yards of size 10 cordonnet crochet cotton.

The two versions from Crochet Monthly call for 450 and 525 yards and both list a size 6 hook instead and name the pattern Bamboo in one and Basketweave in the other.
