The Victorian Pattern Box

A collection of patterns for knitting, crochet, sewing, embroidery and various related crafts from the Victorian era. Photographed from their original publications and provided free of charge for the use of re enactors, living history groups, researchers and the general public.

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!

1865. Starting to feel like if you stood still long enough in Victorian England you'd be covered in crochet before you knew it!
