    I cannot believe you have 1918 crochet cotton. Wow. So glad you changed and used the right cotton. You did an excellent job on your second attempt. Agree working with the photo was important to get it perfect. You were 95% accurate with those weird instructions. Cannot wait till the next mystery.

    I have used sewing thread to make motifs for my granddaughter's doll clothes. I don't know how women back in the day did it without going blind. I love how yours came out...great job. I enjoy these so much. The oldest pattern book I have is from the 1960's and reading them is very hard. I'm learning so much, and one day I hope to start one of those patterns. Thank you for all your hard work.

    Looks very similar to the Eiffel Tower stitch, I think the problem is at the beginning, you did the 7 chains then added 3 for the double chain. It would make a pretty cuff on a knitted cardigan.

  • @mscscottage1277
    @mscscottage1277 Рік тому +1

    I love it. I think that there is an assumption in making cuffs. Like with a shawl, it is assumed that it is 1- top down, 2- has a double reverse center of some sort, 3- increases in size with each row.... maybe it is so with cuffs. It was common for young ladies to regularly do some form of needlework so this information would have been common knowledge or handed down by a mother or governess . It is sad that this art has been declining. Thank you so much for bringing back the beautiful patterns of the past. And in such a fun way! I look forward to your channel.

    You're so brave doing these patterns! I wouldn't have known what to do. I think that thread would have been even thinner than regular sewing thread, like some sort of silk filament, because I tried crocheting regular thread with a .6 mm hook and the thread was too thick. One of my ancestors made a doily out of Irish crochet with motifs that were honestly less than 1/4" big. I cannot figure out how they made this so tiny.

      The finest thread for crochet is certainly finer than many of the sewing threads. I know a lot of old patterns were worked with an 80 thread, which IS very fine. I regularly work with 30 and 50 thread and a 0.6mm steel hook.

    ❤These patterns and especially the Etruscan lace remind me of my young childhood when my grandmother's Aunt Grace would come to visit. She and Grandma would sit and crochet these items for hours each day during the week long visits. My grandmother was born in 1913, so I'm sure Great Aunt Grace was born somewhere around 1870. She lived to be over 100. She was a very prim & proper unmarried Lady, but always had a smile & treats for well-behaved children.

      My husband and I used to play music at an old west show and chuckwagon supper south of Amarillo, TX. I wore several outfits down there. In the end, down there, I played a working girl who "gave up cowboys for cattle". When we played private parties and different shows that were indoors I had a few dressy 1880s styled outfits. It was soooo much fun to not only play the music of that era but also to dress in those clothes! ❤️
      Silly me. I knew how to crochet back then (1990s) but didn't even think about crocheting accessories or anything! My fingers were too busy learning new old songs on my guitar and mandolin and singing and yodeling!

    I can explain 'working one side.' I was taught by great grandmother to crochet on this type of pattern. You have to think of this like you are knitting where you are creating an actual front and back to your crochet work and the two sides will look different just like in knitting.
    When you are crocheting from the right to left the hook is inserted in from the side facing you like normal. Now when you turn your work you need to insert the hook into the side facing away. You always insert your hook into the front of your work even when it is facing away from you. I hope this helps.

    Corina, if you're buying vintage crochet thread and yarn from the thrift store, be sure you test it by pulling on a length between your fingers, if possible. Some of it can be sound and remain perfectly usable for years if stored properly, but some of it can deteriorate from dry rot.

    You did not mess anything up; rather, you made it your own. I'm constantly doing this with printed patterns, making what I think are improvements as I go. Occasionally, what I end up with has little to do with what I was supposed to be making; I'll start making an afghan, for example, and end up with a slouchy beanie for a lady that I work with. It's all part of the creative process, which is a testimony to your intelligence, by the way. Keep it up!

    Very beautiful!!! Could be used as a bracelet. I kinda liked the first one, it had distressed sweater vibes!

    Oh man I loved this one ❤️ super pretty pattern and I think it would look beautiful if it was sewn onto a sleeve of some delicate blouse
