Elvina Mary Corbould (27 April 1849 – 6 October 1936) was a British writer and textile artist.
Elvina Mary Corbould was born on 27 April 1849 in Islington, the daughter of Dr. Henry Heath Corbould and Ann Ker Corbould. She was from the Corbould family of artists and her paternal grandfather was Henry Corbould. Her brother was the artist Walter Edward Corbould.
Corbould wrote a novel, Sweet Little Rogues (1876), and with Louise Rossi wrote Side-Lights on Shakspere (1897), a book on the works of William Shakespeare aimed at general readers and students. Under the name E. M. C. she published numerous books on knitting, including The Lady's Knitting Book (1874) and The Knitting Teacher’s Assistant (1877), the latter of which was the most recent edition of a fifty-year old handbook for national schools.
