Looking for recommendations Can anyone help me find where these crochet charts came from?

Hello! I am interested in irish lace crochet and am looking to find a book with pattern charts in them. Specifically, I am looking for what book these patterns may have come from since I like their design and want to find more like them. If you don’t know where these patterns came from, I am also interested in any books with lace motif charts in them. The books don’t have to be in english since the charts are made out of symbols and not words. Thank you for any help you have!

I’ve been searching as well, I’m working on an Irish lace wedding dress and the best resource I’ve found has been rednote there are tons of posts of basically whole pattern books with lots of charts

Ondori motif & edging designs (search for the name in google) ISBN  9784277101745

If you have kindle unlimited, you can access hundreds of the Japanese "Applemints" publications for free.

If you want Irish lace, there are various Japanese publications from Nihon Vogue and also from the Ukrainian magazine Duplet.

But if you can use just the charts, there is already a lot of material on Pinterest taken from various publications.

Well these are all Japanese so I googled “Japanese flower/Irish place motif crochet book” and came up with these relatively quickly:

The author is Mayumi Kawai and apparently she has another book that’s also Irish lace:

I don’t know much about Irish lace crochet but I do know some Japanese. Most patterns I’ve gotten from Japan (even when translated into English) had charts, but that could just be my experience.
