Table of Contents
Second Series.
T
The following examples of Knitting—like those in the former Series—have been selected with the greatest care; adhering to the same technical terms, and mode of arrangement.
The writer cannot but feel flattered with the reception given to the First Series of My Knitting Book,
and also to her other volumes on Decorative Needlework:—and she deems that their general correctness and utility are proved by the translations made of them into the Continental languages, and by their verbatim republication in America.
Since the publication of the first edition of the present series, the whole of the examples have been carefully reworked, and the faults of the first impressions have been corrected; yet, it is not to be wondered at, in a work of this description, that errors—notwithstanding every precaution—should occasionally creep in. Hence the writer will be much indebted for corrections of any mistakes that may be discovered by ladies using these books; she cannot, however, attend to anonymous communications, or to such as relate to supposable errors arising from misunderstanding on the part of the Knitter.

MY KNITTING BOOK.
SECOND SERIES.
Introduction.
Table of Contents
IIt has been justly observed that, an art cannot be taught but by its proper terms.
In the art of knitting, various terms have been employed—whether correctly, or not, it is here needless to inquire—to designate the same simple process. Confusion has necessarily been the result. Those who are accustomed to follow the technicalities of one writer on knitting, are not unfrequently perplexed to comprehend the directions of another, however clearly and concisely they may be laid down. Hence, in the first series of the present treatises, the writer confined herself to the use of the technical terms most generally employed by adepts in the art, and which appeared to be those most easy of comprehension. The following directions, therefore, will be conveyed in the same phraseology; but, for ease of reference, and for the use of those who may not possess the former series, it has been deemed expedient to repeat the—
Explanation of Terms used in Knitting.
Table of Contents
To cast on.—To make the first interlacement of the thread on the needle.
To cast off.—To knit two stitches, and to pass the first over the second, and so on, to the last stitch, which is to be secured by drawing the thread through.
To pearl.—To knit a stitch with the thread before the needle.
