The pattern is called Boel, from 'Tatting Patterns and Edging' by Gun Blomqvist and Elwy Persson. I've tatting it in ecru DMC Cebilia size 30. I tatted it for some very soft tan bamboo and cotton pillowcases I found at Target, 40 inches tatted per pillowcase. I sewed it on the pillowcases about three inches in from the edge, along the seam, so that the pattern shows up better. And I took the picture with my cell phone while at my lunch break one day!
The edging is very pretty. I have an edging started that is very similar, but I don't know where I put the pattern. Maybe that's the one! I'll have to pull out my book.
