Product Information

Originally published in the 1910s, Corticelli Knitting and Crochet Book #6 contains more than 60 stylish knitting and crochet designs for sweaters, coats, jackets, vestees, socks, caps, rugs, etc, all with beautiful illustrations and complete working instructions. Especially, many of the 20 or so sweater patterns in the book are amazingly modern.

Book Excerpt:

Hand knitted articles are created at a minimum of expense; in fact, knitting is a real practical economy. Furthermore, garments made in this way usually contain better material, fit better, and give longer service than machine-made articles...

No one, however imperfect her knowledge of the art of knitting, should have any difficulty in making any of the articles shown in this book if she follows the carefully prepared directions.
