Summary "Exercises in Knitting" by Cornelia Mee is a practical guide on knitting techniques written in the mid-19th century. The work presents various knitting patterns along with detailed instructions on how to create items such as chair covers, bags, and garments. The primary focus of the book is to provide knitters with a range of projects that utilize different patterns and color schemes, enhancing both skill and creativity in knitting. The opening of the text outlines a structured approach to various knitting exercises, starting with a list of projects, including twelve chair covers featuring intricate designs like the German Pattern of Open Double Knitting and Nun's Pattern. Each section provides clear instructions on the number of stitches needed, types of wool, and the specific techniques for achieving the patterns. The beginning emphasizes the adaptability of these patterns for various uses, allowing knitters to apply their skills beyond simple projects and explore the art of decorative and functional knitting.
