Is that a honeycomb pattern? The readers digest guide to needlework covers mocking pretty well. Honeycomb is a basic/easy type https://katafalk.wordpress.com/2010/02/05/honeycomb-smocking-tutorial/

Little over a decade ago, out of the Reader's Digest Complete Guide to Needlework - learning from a book was HARD. I kind of got it, but not entirely. After a quick head scarf triangle thing, I tried a jacquard three color plaid piece that was... special. That scarf is still somewhere around my house. I was ambitious!

I put it down for a while. Then took up crochet and knitting again during/after college. But ravelry and youtube had then been invented, making things much much easier!!

I then started small. Retaught myself to knit. Retaught myself crochet. Looked at projects like fingerless mittens to try multi-needle work. I read a lot more about projects here now, so I can understand more. And I learned that its okay to have to frog and try again! That's really important especially with lace work!
