Using an Antique Crochet Pattern | The Perfect History Bounding Sweater
Просмотров 21 тыс.Год назад
Wearables are my favorite things to crochet, and I’m always on the lookout for cute sweater patterns. I’m also a big fan of historybounding, so imagine my delight when I came across this crochet sweater pattern from 1917! I thought it would look just as cute with a pair of jeans as it would a full WWI-era outfit. The pattern seems easy enough at first glance, so it can’t be too hard to make…rig...

I adore vintage hairstyles, but when I’m styling my hair for everyday wear I often just don’t have the desire to deal with a wet set, brush out, etc. Enter: The Snood Snoods (or snood-like things) have been worn throughout history, and they were a common accessory in the 1940’s, a decade that I take a lot of style inspiration from.

Using an Antique Crochet Pattern | Filet Crochet Table Runner

I’m diving into the world of historical crochet and it is…small?

    Totes and bins are the devil. They say they are for storage but they are only for hoarding. After we moved to a smaller house in retirement that had no basement I sold every single one on Facebook. All my stuff had to fit neatly in closets or cupboards or it was donated. I love my yarn in a bookcase, I can look over and plan projects.

    FABULOUS job engineering a pattern off that picture! The project turned out great. I loved how you showed how you overcame the difficulties of actually crocheting the project without an actual pattern.. BELIEVE me that happens even with a written pattern depending on the author of the pattern. A question: I have noticed that many crocheters leave an especially long tail to weave in at the end. WHY? I have noticed this while watching RUclips videos. In response to the question about doing double trebles and triple trebles with the loops a little lose, for me, it's a tension issue. I enjoy the videos.😊❤❤

    • @stitchnfiction
      @stitchnfiction 5 месяцев назад

      Thank you so much! RE: your question about tails - I personally find it easier to weave in the ends with a longer tail, as I get more range of movement with my yarn needle that way. Much easier to cut off excess rather than struggle with a too-short thread. ☺️
