If you haven't visited the Antique Pattern Library lately, there have been a numbe of additions. I would call attention to Mlle. Riego de la Branchardiere's Winter Mode 1860, 1861 and 1862. The 1862 issue contains a mourning shawl (with color suggestions), carriage boots, a man's comforter of a style I had not seen previously--think a sort of keyhole shape--and some advertisements in the back. It's a London publication, but would still seem useful.
Also, there have been a number of 1850s and 1860s tatting pattern books added, as well as embroidery.
