Constance Spry's Garden Journal, written in the '30's. She was sort of the Martha Stewart of her day: She was a floral arranger who was considered radical because she used vegetables, fruits, & branches in her arrangements! She wrote this book upon the encouragement of her friends in a garden club in New York. She was instrumental in preserving old rose varieties during the Battle of Britain & David Austin later named his very first English Rose after her. Don't have the book handy, but one of the things she says is that, after a disaster with some of the "new" fertilizers, she will never ever under any circumstances allow chemicals in her gardens again! The Victory Garden. don't know the author. found the book at an antique store. It's full of good everyday information, such as: planting flowers in the vegetable garden to feed our hearts & souls tending a small space well rather than over-extending, thus wasting seed & garden space as well as time & energy, using proven varieties to assure production & quality. Cultivating Delight, by Diane Ackerman. Not an old book, but I do love it. It's the story of a year in her garden, reflective & contemplative rather than nuts & bolts. It's a delightful book; I'm on my 2nd trip through it.

Dave, can you give some examples? Examples of types of recipes? Yeah, what Carol said. If someone has a specific recipe from an old book that they just have to have for some reason then that recipe has to be evaluated on its own merits, not the date of the book. That was my point. Some of the old recipes that aren't in the later editions of the BBB were left out not because they were now unsafe but because they were low-demand/low-interest and room was needed to add new recipes. Some of them are still fine but it takes experience and a good knowledge base of canning guidelines to evaluate them. Someone new to canning would need help doing that and if the post the recipe we can do that. Dave

Thanks for your suggestions. I guess that I should have realized that basically it was an increasing stitch and all I had to do was make it come out looking Ok. I am just picking up the crossed loop and knitting it. It seems to be working out Ok. This is one of those patterns where you have to almost count every stitch and knit carefully or (and that means ripping back right?) I am enjoying reading everyones comments about all questions. This is an terrific site.
