Marrying two exceptionally popular topics—needlework and women's history—this book provides an authoritative yet entertaining discussion of the diversity and importance of needlework in Victorian women's lives. Victorian Needlework explores these ubiquitous pastimes—their practice and their meaning in women's lives. Covering the period from 1837–1901, the book looks specifically at the crafts themselves examining quilting, embroidery, crochet, knitting, and more. It discusses required skills and the techniques women used as well as the technological innovations that influenced needlework during this period of rapid industrialization. This book is unique in its comprehensive treatment of the topic ranging across class, time, and technique. Readers will learn what needlework meant to "ladies," for whom it was a hobby reflecting refinement and femininity, and discover what such skills could mean as a "suitable" way for a woman to make a living, often through grueling labor. Such insights are illustrated throughout with examples from women's periodicals, needlework guides, pattern books, and personal memoirs that bring the period to life for the modern reader.

"The Knitting Book" by Eléonore Riego de la Branchardière Mademoiselle Riego was an esteemed expert on the topic of needlepoint, crochet, and sewing. Her extensive knowledge allowed her to write this book that taught readers both the basic and more complex skills involved in the knitting process, from how to make a stitch to a guide on how to follow knitting patterns. Though many years have passed since it was first written, her advice is just as useful today as it was during her time.
