The Stocking-Knitter's Manual: A Handy Book For The Worktable is a comprehensive guide to knitting stockings, written by Anne Jane Cupples and originally published in 1870. The book provides detailed instructions on the techniques and stitches required to create a variety of stockings, including plain and fancy stockings, socks, and leg warmers. Cupples begins with an introduction to the tools and materials needed for stocking knitting, including different types of needles, yarns, and patterns. She then covers the basic techniques of casting on, knitting, purling, and binding off, before moving on to more advanced techniques such as shaping, decreasing, and increasing. Throughout the book, Cupples includes numerous patterns for stockings of different styles and sizes, as well as tips and tricks for customizing designs and making modifications. She also provides advice on choosing the right yarn and needles for each project, as well as on finishing and blocking the finished stockings. The Stocking-Knitter's Manual is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art of knitting, and a fascinating glimpse into the history of this traditional craft. It is a must-have for anyone looking to expand their knitting skills and create beautiful, functional stockings that will last for years to come.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
