This is a loose and random collection of original knitting, crochet and needlework patterns from Victorian publications. I do knit, crochet and sew, however, these patterns at best can be described as a very loose collection of directions accompanied by photographs and/or illustrations and are in many instances beyond my skills and comprehension.

To view the patterns and instructions clearer, double click and expand as desired.

Good luck!

The Spangle Craze

Home Chat Vol 1 (I can't find a date on this volume but going by the size of the sleeves I estimate 1896/7) I was wrong, although vol 1 is not dated, vol 2 begins March 1896 so I will assume 1895 for Volume 1.

New Patterns for Beaded Cuffs

A bit of a challenge this one as there are No images of the cuffs - but they sound nice!
