Forests of pothooks?
Hello everybody.
I'm reading 'Little Women' by Louisa May Alcott chapter 40.
one of her pleasures was to make little things for the
school children daily passing to and fro, ... a needlebook for some small mother of many dolls, penwipers for young penmen toiling through forests of pothooks.
Would you please tell me what forests of pothooks means?
Thanks ??
