MY KNITTING BOOK (SECOND SERIES) BY MISS LAMBERT AUTHORESS OF THE HAND-ROOK OF NEEDLEWORK, CHURCH NEEDLEWORK, MY CROCHET SAMPLER, ETC. TWENTY-THIRD THOUSAND. LONDON: JOHN MURRAY, ALBEMARLE STREET. 1847.
Shortly will be published, by the same Authoress, Uniform with the present work, and illustrated with Engravings, price 1s. 6d. AN ENTIRELY NEW WORK ON CROCHET, Forming a Second Series of “My Crochet Sampler.”
Just published, BY THE SAME AUTHORESS, A Fifth and cheaper Edition, price 6s. 6d. THE HAND-BOOK OF NEEDLEWORK DECORATIVE AND ORNAMENTAL, INCLUDING ENTIRELY NEW PATTERNS IN CROCHET, KNITTING AND NETTING, ILLUSTRATED BY 150 ENGRAVINGS.
Second Series.
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.
