154 Pages. This is by far the most wonderful Victorian era Knitting reference I have seen. It is jam packed with a wide variety of wonderful patterns that range from clothing to dolls to suspenders to child's reins and a Victorian baby bottle cover! This truly is an amazing book!
Victorian era knitting books are a rare commodity, and this one is the cream of the crop in my opinion. The Butterick company is the parent company of the current Vogue magazine. They have been producing books of the highest quality for more than a century. This book is filled with patterns that you will not find anywhere else. For instance, I have never seen a book with a good pattern for Victorian neckties or suspenders - this book has several patterns of them! This one is a "must have" for the vintage knitter!
