DUCHESSE
TECHNIQUE
Jane Newble-de Graaf DUCHESSE LACE, AN INTRODUCTION. Batsford, 1989. English. Quite good to learn from. Lots of diagrams, some simple learning patterns for all the specific common techniques, some nice designs, traditional but with a modern feel.
R. Delescen-van Rijsewijk DUCHESSE-KANT, KANT VOOR HERTOGINNEN, Terra Zutphen 1987. In Dutch, but there are enough diagrams explaining the hard parts to make it usable. Nice patterns.

Yvonne Scheele-Kerhof 50 Dutch Bobbin Lace Patterns: Withof and Duchesse
Louisa A. Tebbs THE ART OF BOBBIN LACE, 1907. and SUPPLEMENT TO THE ART OF BOBBIN LACE, 1911. Verbal descriptions of how to make the lace, but certainly not to learn from. Interesting patterns for styles she calls "Guipure de Flandre", "Old Flemish", "Point de Flandre", "Milanese", "Venetian". The Milanese is recognizable. There are some patterns in the Honiton style and Duchesse style. These are available online as free downloads from http://www.cs.arizona.edu/patterns/weaving/books.html
Ana Isasi Blanco BRUSSELS LACEMAKING. self published, 1985. In English. Mostly verbal descriptions of what to do. Very few diagrams. Some nice patterns.
L. W. van der Meulen-Nulle HANDLEIDING TOT HET VERVAARDIGEN VAN DUCHESSE KANT 1983 in Dutch. A famous book, but the diagrams aren't quite enough to help a non-Dutch speaker. I don't know if this was ever translated into English.
Sister Judith self published several sets of patterns, called DUCHESSE PATRONEN. The 1st volume and pure Duchesse. Sucessive volumes move more and more into Withof style. There is no explanation or instructions, but the patterns are beautiful.
Jose van Pamelen-Hagenaars DUCHESSE, 20 KANTKLOSPATRONEN. 1983. In Dutch, but the diagrams are clear enough and detailed enough that you can follow what to do. Nice patterns. Most stay to the traditional style, while being easier and less fussy than traditional. A few are very modern designs.

Chieko Miyawaki THE TECHNIQUE OF ROSALINE all Japanese, some working diagrams, many step-by-step photos, lots of text (that I could not read), no ISBN (that I could read). Very pretty book. The book included a contact email address: bobbin-lace.chi@jcom.home.ne.jp, which I have not tried.
"Susan Hottle's review: of The Technique of Rosaline Lace by Chieko Miyawaki ... It is written in Japanese but there is a CD included that has a 26 page English translation as a pdf. ..The translator is not a lacemaker, the translation so far has proved to be adequate. There are lots of good diagrams & many elegant patterns. ...Note that there are some differences in technique compared to Judith Cordell, Geelen & Moors. I felt the instructions & diagrams for the "multiple fish" motif were helpful when I re-worked the Cordell leaf spray. "

Carolyn THANK YOU for all the book detail. Weneed your input to keep us all up to date.
A fellow student in the Rosaline class taught by Maria Provencher at the 2013 IOLI convention had the Miyawaki book. My notes about it include: all Japanese, some working diagrams, many step-by-step photos, lots of text (that I could not read), no ISBN (that I could read). Very pretty book. The book included a contact email address: bobbin-lace.chi@jcom.home.ne.jp, which I have not tried.

Thanks Carolyn. I have added them to the list above. Can you tell us a little about the contents? How many patterns? Arranged in order of difficulty? Are photographs close up enough? Good diagrams? Any details you can add would be useful for someone buying books sight unseen.
Please add to books on Rosaline technique: Rosaline Perle by Judith Cordell (2011, ISBN-13: 978-0957069800); The Technique of Rosaline by Vera Cockuyt; The Technique of Rosaline/Patterns by Vera Cockuyt. All three are available from Holly van Sciver
I wonder if it is self-published?
someone knows wherei could find the book "THE TECHNIQUE OF ROSALINE" by chieko miyawaki??
in internet i can't find anything about it...
Just today I learned of the Miyawaki Rosaline book. Has anyone seen it? Describe its contents?
The books I've added are ones I have, but all are rather old, and I'm not sure which ones are still in print. I don't have any more recent ones. Please, please if you know of any more recent books on duchesse, please post a comment with the details, including a description of its strong points.
