http://www.scanno.org/libro_arte_merletto.htm same book as above.
Vera Cockuyt THE TECHNIQUE OF CANTU LACE, self publ 2000.
Pizzo di Cantu, publ by Mani de Fata. A periodical specializing in this style of lace. Holly Van Sciver has #4 and #5. I believe these have a basic techniques section at the beginning of each issue.
I have not seen any of these and therefore cannot attest to their usefulness. But when there is little written material we will take anything.
Mary McPeek STUDIES IN CANTU BOBBIN LACE, 1985, self published pamphlet. It is quite old, so the explanations are all verbal, not diagrams. I have no idea where a copy might be obtained. Try the Great Lakes Lace Guild. Someone there may have any remaining copies that she left.
