Antique patterns with antique terminology. Not decipherable to the new or beginner knitter but Ravelry has been a help to look some of them up. More nostalgic for me than anything else. Free kindle download through the Gutenberg project.

This is more of a reference book. It gives the reader a lot of information about knitting in the 1800's, but is less useful today. It is very interesting.

I thought the patterns were interesting, though I wish there had been photos of the finished projects in the book.
