Summary "The Lady's Knitting-Book" by Elvina Mary Corbould is a practical guide dedicated to the art of knitting, written during the latter half of the 19th century. This instructional book provides readers with a comprehensive collection of eighty clear and easy patterns that encompass both useful and ornamental knitting techniques. The focus is on detailed explanations and simple patterns catering mainly to woman knitters, reflecting the Victorian era's interest in domestic crafts. The book consists of a wide array of patterns and instructions ranging from items like socks, stockings, and sweaters to decorative motifs such as antimacassars and quilts. Each pattern includes specific details about the yarn, knitting needles, and methods, accommodating various skill levels, from beginners to more experienced knitters. Corbould's meticulous approach emphasizes the importance of using the correct yarn for each project and aims to demystify common knitting techniques, making it accessible for all women interested in expanding their knitting repertoire in an era where crafting had social and practical significance.
