Elegant knitted coverings called counterpanes adorned many a bed in the 19th century. The patterns for most of these coverings, however, have been neglected for most of this century--until now.

Inspired by the book Knitted Counterpanes by Mary Walker Phillips which is out of print and insanely expensive if you find a copy. I used the library. The patterns in it are gorgeous but the instructions are the worst ever.
