-Higgin, L.: Handbook of Embroidery
-Wheeler, Candace: The Development of Embroidery in America
-Christie, Mrs. Archibald H.: Embroidery and Tapestry Weaving

I was also thinking of posting these titles which you can find at Project Gutenberg but I took Patricia's advice that they might not be particularly useful on eink readers (and me being a smart dog, I took her advice):

-MARY A. McCORMACK: SPOOL KNITTING
-CORNELIA MEE: EXERCISES IN KNITTING
-(no author given): THE LADIES' WORK-BOOK CONTAINING INSTRUCTIONS IN Knitting, Crochet, Point-Lace, &c.

Okay, continue untying, please.

I think Spool Knitting is up, but the other two knitting books sound awesome. Just upload them, I know I'll grab them

Thanks for the heads up on the others! I can't sew (hope to learn), but I know others would be interested in them
