Über diesen Titel

 In the picturesque town of Bath, England, Mrs. Mee, along with her husband and sister, built a successful yarn and needlework import and warehouse business. Her knitting books are filled with practical, everyday projects tailored for the busy homemaker. At a time when knitting patterns were often convoluted and error-prone, her designs shone with their simplicity and accessibility. As war and social upheaval approached, her works became essential resources for charitable societies, providing clothing for impoverished mill workers affected by the American Civil War and the cotton embargo. Today, LibriVox knitters have breathed new life into these original patterns, creating stunning samples displayed at the KnitWiki, and refining the instructions for a new generation of knitting enthusiasts to enjoy.
