[edit] Exercises in Knitting by Cornelia Mee
This 1846 knitting book did not include any illustrations. Over time the group of volunteers at LibriVox will be adding illustrations for each pattern along with a modern rewriting. If you would like to be part of this project you may see the group discussion at LibriVox here.
