Beeton's Book of Needlework by Isabella Beeton, hand-bound in genuine leather by LeatheredLines. From the publishers of Mrs Beeton's famous Book of Household Management, this Victorian guide to needlework covers crochet, knitting, tatting, netting, embroidery, point lace and more. Lavishly illustrated with engraved patterns and clear instructions, it is a treasure for needleworkers and a beautiful piece of nineteenth-century domestic history.
About this leather-bound edition
Each copy is bound by hand in genuine leather over sturdy boards, with decorative tooling and gold-tone foil lettering on the spine. Natural variation in grain, shade and foil impression is part of the character of every handmade book, so no two copies are exactly alike.
The thickness and weight of the finished book depend on the length of this particular title. Longer works make a noticeably thicker volume, while shorter works are slimmer.
