The first three are knitting books: Learn to Knit, Women's Sweaters, and Classics from 8 to 16 (children's knits.) They are put out by the same company that makes Red Heart Yarn.
This book starts with the basics:

I thought these embroidery projects were funny. :)

I hope you enjoyed my Show and Tell. I sure was glad my Grandmother brought them to me! I have enjoyed looking at these books. I love vintage things anyway. :)
We had a very special time with her while she was down here! This picture was taken at a lookout a little ways from here.
I hope everyone has a wonderful Friday! Thanks for dropping by! If it's your first time, welcome, and come back soon. :) For more Show and Tell visit Kelli's blog.
Blessings!
