Old crochet patterns were written by the literal devil. No one has any idea whats happening and im scared. The one I'm currently working on is from 1971 and it can not possibly be this big but ive triple checked and i guess women from the 70's had crochet super powers

On New Year's Day, I finished my double-sided velour Hillview scarf! With one side being the couch pattern and the other being the wallpaper pattern, it's like wearing a part of my old home.

I finished embroidering my sweater!!! The red ink around the dancing donkey may never fade, but I still think it's a cute little sweatshirt now. 😍🥰😍

Just about to hit post and looking at the picture it seems I've forgotten to fill in the hoof by the guitar. The back is already covered with a fleece fabric. At least its a small area! 😅

Here are four pretty crochet pieces from the 1922 Bear Brand Blue Book, which I’ve restored and put up here on my Etsy!

This booklet is unique for its time, as almost every pattern inside includes gauge and measurements. It has over 50 patterns for women, men, and children.

Fifth Friday is a thing I do so I don't go two weeks without posting something on my Youtube channel. Regular videos are the first three Fridays of the month and are always whatever project I'm showing off. Fifth Fridays are still crochet-related but not projects.

This one is just me looking through this pattern book I got from Australia via Etsy. I made a PDF of the whole thing (it's mostly crochet, but there are three knitting patterns, including a shirt dress I wish I could make), and it's free on my website.

Looking through my pattern collection and realizing that I will have to get a organizer boxes to put them in [Big ones, ‘cause some of them are printed on standard paper and are in large ziplock bags]

And now I’m just thinking about organizing them by date even if that means looking up each pattern to determine those dates

Also: This beauty is of 1942 and that makes my brain buzz because my time travel fic takes place through 1940 to 1946 and I care too much about these kind of details

ALSO: I love both versions of this outfit and look forward to making them

Whew! After all that she is ready and wearable! (Pictured with hat to match).

More info on my experience making it under the cut!

This one was a bit of a tough make as the pattern I used was vintage (from Lady Marlowe) and a lot of the instructions used outdated terminology, which made even looking up more detailed instructions a bit difficult.

But I learned a lot from the pattern, which was really exciting! In particular I'll definitely use plackets and blind hems again on other projects (in fact I have an old skirt I made that I'll probably add a placket to some day).

I have two other vintage patterns from the same source that I'll be trying to make shortly, so stick around for that as well! They're all 30s patterns, as I have mentioned before I think 30s fashions are hugely underrated so I want to document making lots more of them on this blog.
