This pattern is available for free.

This pattern is from a section called “The Work Table” and is on page 135.

The pattern may be formed in three shades of scarlet on a blue ground of three shades; the darkest shade of the scarlet being on the lightest shade of the blue.

The hook size isn’t specified.

A modern equivalent for eight thread fleecy would be a light to medium worsted yarn. The terminology is going to be closer to modern UK crochet terms but there are differences.
