Hi Sue: Judging from the lack of anybody chiming in, I don’t think there is, Sue. The book wasn’t originally published with patterns, so if you did find one it would be a pattern that a lacemaker made from the line drawing in the book - and you already have the drawing. Anyone who thoroughly understood Honiton could probably replicate this lace from the photograph - just draw lines where the pins would go, adjust the size to your thread, and make it from that.
Sorry, I know I haven’t been very helpful, but most of the early books were this way. I was lucky to start making lace right around the time Doris Southard’s “Bobbin Lacemaking” was published; it was the only useful book in my library. The other books I had were this one (Honiton Lace by Devonia), Margaret Maidment’s book, and Louisa Tebbs’ “Art of Bobbin Lace”, all of which were very old and quite unhelpful.
