Little tip from 40+ year crocheter. When you change colors, lay the tail of the old color along the upcoming stitches and just stitch right over it as you continue. When you get back around, take the “new” color tail and lay that over and stitch over it. At the end, you will have few to no tails to weave in. You did a lovely job!
Yeah it’s pretty mandatory for UA-camr crocheters. I’ve been working with crochet for about 8 years now (o started while I was pregnant with my twins) and that was the second trick I learned on UA-cam. Melanie Hamm taught me how to crochet. RIP MELANIE
Does the crocheted item stand up over many launderings with so little weaving in? I thought going back and forth three times would secure the ends better than just crocheting over them.
Except at my house, where Roxanne the Texas heeler wanted sit in my yarn. I love the shawl. I wear shawls all the time. They are perfect here in Texas in the summer, where they keep it too cold in the air conditioning.
I have always found that when I have a project and I'm doing a continuous round, I use one color of stitch marker for the beginning/starting corner and a different color for the remaining corners that way I always know where I'm at in relation to the start, it makes everything so much easier.
I just had this same idea yesterday. I’m making my first market bag, working in a continuous round. After ripping it out twice because I lost track of where I was, I thought of this. You’re right, it works really well 👍
The fringe is supposed to be "two strands thick laid double". In other words, you should have two strands of yarn (not one) and fold them in half - or doubled (so you'll have 4, not 2, ends of fringe in each stitch). Also, whenever you make fringe, it's best to make it a little longer and then trim it once it's all complete. Inevitably, you'll end up with some uneven fringe AND trimming it lets you be quicker with the application, not worrying about getting the ends absolutely even. Hope this helps!
thank you, I was just about to comment the same thing. two threads thick, laid double. so 4 strands. that's why the fringe was about to be a little thin and it is, finally.
This style wrap is also known as a "Scottish Hap" . I like that you are showing th ese beautiful old patterns. I have some books from the 40's. They cost 10 cents!
Using the large hook makes the fabric so flexible and nice. It’s interesting to think about the fact that they didn’t have any yarn but wool for winter. Wow this would have been warm which of course they needed. So fun!
Learnd to crochet when I was four at my grandmothers knee. Im 75 years old now. Kept at it over the years and improved over the years. But I love vintage crochet. And do it quite abit an then found Just vintage crochet and just fell in love with it all over again.
My sisters Mother-in-Law was a crocheter. She has since passed away but, when I started crocheting again a few years ago, my brother-in-law asked if I wanted his mom's "sewing" basket and inside was a treasure trove of hooks, a few knitting needles, scissors and some old patterns. Some typed up or copied from books. A few from old magazines and some she had written down by hand. I was very honored to accept this gift. I think my brother-in-law was happy it stayed in the family so to speak. I was looking at some the other day and it is amazing how things were written. These aren't even as old as the ones you are doing. But it is fun to see how they were worked up. I love your channel. Very interesting. Keep up the great work.
Be sure you make it out of a washable wool, will blend, or a combination of alpaca for the best warmth! WEBS is constantly having clearance sales online and their washable wools are soft, not scratchy
I really enjoyed your video. I have collected Vintage patterns for years. The trick I have learned in reading these antique directions is to NOT over-think it and look at the finished pattern at the same time. Cant wait for your next one!
I have some of my Grandmother and Great Grandmother's crochet books & "needles." My Grandma was so talented that she could look at the pattern before starting the project and know if the instructions were printed wrong. I am 58yrs old and have been crocheting since I was 7yrs. I love the "vintage" patterns and to this day, I too still struggle with some of those old printed patterns. I also struggle with some of the new ways & terms of crochet - thank goodness for video tutorials!
I think at the start to get to 8sc, they mean to do to 2sc in each of the veins of the 4 chains you originally made, not just the three we used the backlooop of. This means disregarding the "worked off together" stitch when moving to the next round. Makes a nice closed loop! Ultimately won't change a lot to the finished project. Thank you for showing this vintage pattern!
I was wondering the same thing I am, however, still very much a novice when crocheting But I love watching this channel It makes me grateful for how much easier it is today Plus, I learn new things, and these patterns are so pretty
As a crocheter who struggles with anything but lace trim, the way you use your stitch markers is hugely helpful. I'm an expert knitter but just taught myself to crochet a couple of years ago. I can read my knitting, but really struggle with tracking what my crochet is doing. Thanks!
I had the same issue, but stitch markers helped a lot. I also got a row counter, a small digital one. It's been a life saver, especially with multi row patterns. I am able to keep track of the rows.
Over 40 years ago I made this pattern out of sport weight yarn. It took me over a year to finish it. I found a pattern book that offered it. I believe the book was published in the 1960’s. The shawl was my pride and joy until it was stolen. I don’t have to tell you how sick I was. I’m glad I found you because I was thinking I would make that shawl again. Only I will made mine using a tight granny square pattern. Happy hooking!
I subscribed to a couple of vintage crochet and knitting magazines for years. I am fascinated by them. Thank you for doing this. The result of your efforts is so lovely. I am always looking for something to do with the hand spun yarn that I make. This is a worthy project.
You did a fantastic job of figuring this pattern out and executing it. You are so smart. I eventually will try it. I am working on a knit shawl and a crochet one. So won’t take on another project right now. I really enjoy your channel. Next month I will be 77 and learned to crochet when I was a child. I didn’t know much about the real vintage patterns and it’s history. You have taught this older women new things. Thanks.
OMG!!! This is gorgeous. The Happy accident of running out of the navy created such a great color combination with the grey and white. Thank you for spending the time to decipher this pattern and sharing it. ♥️😍
Picture isn't the silhouette of 1865 but is 1880s and Godey's is pronounced with a long O, as in "Go". Looks like a great pattern and I look forward to trying it out.
Well, l nearly gave up, but l am like a dog with bone. I kept going and l feel comfortable working my shawl/rug. I will send photo of completed work. Next on my list is the lovely evening/bridal gown. I thought how brilliant most my little lumpy bits will have somewhere to go. (T.I.C.). Cheers Beth
I am a vintage crochet enthusiast & enjoy your videos. ❤ Knowing that the directions in such patterns are non-standard & often vague, it is very easy to miss a key clue in how to work these patterns. The 1st round states to “always” SC “on” the free vein of each foundation st. I believe always means to follow this practice on stitches & not “in” stitches throughout. In other words, to SC in the back loop stitch on every round as done on the free veins of the foundation stitches. I tried this technique & it produces a beautiful lacy look, more in line with a traditional lace shawl, in which the texture is created by using the larger hook size. The center also looked more natural using the back loops throughout. I didn’t work in the stitch created by drawing up the 3rd, 2nd & 1st veins at once when starting round 2 or have to add any stitches other than the one stitch on each side for the increases as instructed.
I also read it to say increase on the first stitch made of the increase then on the next row increase on the second stitch of the increase. Alternating the increases every other row. Either way she did a fantastic job and put a lot of labor into making such a beautiful shawl 😊
Jaggerspun yarn company has been around since the Civil War and still make historically accurate yarns in wool and wool/natural fibers blends. Also Bartlett yarns out of Maine. -Danielle
Exquisite, comes to mind! Thank you, SO much, your perseverance commendable! I love history, and your willingness to learn as you go, made my day. Blessings 🙏⚘
Amazing deciphering! I actually think the blue looks really nice then going to the grey. Most women/ladies of the time would have used what they had or even re-used yarn from older projects. I'm glad you managed to work out the initial rows. I don't think I would have been able o and would have judged one together. There isn't much information in the pattern, but I suppose they may have had a more experienced crocheter with them to help them through it. Also pattern styles have changed and that may have been a standard start to a project. I'm not a fringe person and thought I would have left it off, but seeing you wearing it, it does 'complete ' the shawl. Beautiful work and thank you for the video. Take care xxJane 🐇
Wow! That is spectacular! As usual, your work is exquisite!I am sure that I would never have the patience to translate that pattern into modern terms! Thank you very much for sharing this with us.
Love vintage patterns ! I used to get Piecework magazine Even made a couple baby patterns for gifts ! This is a great mindless pattern for easy work to pick up and go . First time I've seen this on my feed I'll be back !

Beautiful work. At that time in history, I am sure this piece had multiple uses. Your videos help the younger generation history as well as the art of crochet . Two 👍s up.
@@justvintagecrochet I'm a new discoverer of your channel and just happen to be a descendant of Dr. Samuel Fuller from the Mayflower. Any chance its the same Fuller line?
Absolutely love it!!!!❤ Thanks for the tutorial and all the lovely vintage articles. The music is great and it takes me back to a time that I have never been there.
Thank you!! I thoroughly enjoyed this!! I love history and crafting. Thank you for the history lesson and humor! I’m subscribed now because of this video ❤
I've been crocheting for about a year to two years now and I have taught myself by watching tutorials and shawls are my favorite to make. I recently taught myself how to make a baby dress, slippers, and sweaters. My next challenge is a dress and sweater for an adult. I also just recently learned to make an octopus 🐙
You've just popped up on my recommendations. I've subscribed and 'liked'. The Blanket Shawl is so interesting I hope to start it next month. A Beautifully crafted piece, congratulations❣
It looks like its a continuous granny square. I may be wrong. I just love the vintage patterns. I never thought about vintage. Thank you for your videos.
I gigglesnorted at 25:00 or so when you got all excited about sc'ing a square, lolol. I can't even complete a washcloth using the sc st, it's soooooooo boring and takes so long to complete a project using it, lol. I call this st my nemesis whenever I see a project I'd like to do but it calls for the entire thing being done in sc's. Nope. Not doin' it, LOLOL! And, yes, that last bit with the fringe, LOLOLOL. I was literally laughing out loud when I saw the DUH comment on the screen because I knew you'd finally figured out what the instructions meant, lolol. It's all good though. Yours came out very lovely and I'm sure it's much appreciated by many of us that you take the time to decipher these old patterns. Once again, a wonderful video, so glad I subscribed!
Thanks for showing this. I love wearing shawls and wraps better than sweaters or coats, which I find restrictive. I wear shawls while working around the house or in the garden. I will be making this next fall out of a washable wool for the winter without the fringe. With the double layer, it will be especially warm on a snowy day.
Love history and Love crochet tho I just started a year ago! When I when , when , when I make this shawl I’m gonna keep it for my self! I’ve been making them to sell but this is one just watching you make I’ll keep just for me!
Hello I found your channel looking for a baby blanket stitch and I this video came up I look at the video and my head went crazy very interesting Victorian crochet you have your work is beautiful and well that day start follow you🙂thank you 🌻
it looks like sometimes you are doing yarn under instead of yarn over, it makes a slight difference in the look of it, but I also love vintage patterns and glad you were in my recommends!
I could be a fantastic beginner as well as a total disaster in crocheting. I simply cannot make out the stitches even when I place a marker. The count is totally off. Your explanation and video are so clear that I think you are my best bet. I'm going to try your vintage shawl. Thank you.
Wow, such an undertaking with some detective work too! 😉 Your shawl/blanket is stunning. You did an amazing job on it. Thank you for doing the tutorial, its very much appreciated. 🩷
That turned out beautifully! I have the same problem with my antique patterns for doilies! Much of the terminology is just so different. It takes a lot of frogging and calculating, but they eventually turn out!!
You did an incredible job of figuring that out. I've never made anything out of single crochet either. It looks really warm. Got to be honest, I think the fringe would look better with two strands. I just might try to make this. I agree about Walmart Mainstay yarn. I bet it's more than $3. a skein now, however. I really enjoyed the friendly way you spoke, like we were right there with you like friends. It was really fun watching and i'm subscribing. Thank you so much for all your hard work I feel the same. I like to go off in my own world of crochet.
That’s a perfect description, simple but substantial, love it! Yeah, it’s limited in color selection but great for big projects that don’t require a special kind of color 👍👍
I agree with Corinna on it's softness. So much softer than RHSS's solid colors. The only unfortunate aspect of Mainstays is there isn't a lot of color variants; just standard colors with a few with light and dark versions, like the blue. But still not a bad price compared to RHSS, which is nearly doubled in price since covid hit.
@@thewitchhut63 indeed, Red heart prices are ridiculous now! Great substitutes that I now use are the Walmart mainstays ($3), and Joann’s Big Twist ( $4) and bernat pound of love works out to be a better deal too , especially for big projects like blankets
I really felt as if I was in the room with you, sitting in a lazy chair sewing right along with you. You look very regal in the reveal! I hope mine works out as lovely. Thank you!
Love, love, love your vintage videos! I am just placing fringe on this shawl but had to use 8mm hook instead. Also made the circular lacing capelet TWICE!! I am a huge fan. Keep it up.
I need to figure out what colors I’d like to use with this… maybe charcoal with grey? This is so pretty, and I’m sure it’s super warm! Edit: subbed! I am addicted to vintage patterns. This is so neat. Thank you!
I want to make this! Also, I love the Mainstays yarn from Walmart. Some of my favorite projects were made with that yarn, which is so inexpensive! I find that it tends to be softer than the Red Heart. I love your channel so much!
Just watched the video and thought I could use all my odd balls of worsted yarn as there is loads from when I used to knit aran jumpers. I don't make them now as old age and arthritis is setting in. Enjoy watching your videos
Hi Corinna- what a complicated pattern. I’d say you’re a crochet genius to be able to decipher this and present it in tutorial form. I’m watching. I’m learning- but I haven’t attempted…yet. 😉
I’m glad you figured this out because I never would have! 😅 Thanks for posting it, I love these old patterns. 🥰. Wanted to add that it turned out great!

Does the crocheted item stand up over many launderings with so little weaving in? I thought going back and forth three times would secure the ends better than just crocheting over them.
I’ve found that weaving in the tails as you go saves a lot of tedium and tears than when you sew them in at the end xx Carol
"It's nice and calm and quiet and everyone is leaving me the hell alone." I felt this in my soul. 😍
indeed lol

When she read the entire pattern at the end, that's what I was thinking as well! So, off each stitch are 4 strands 6 " long!
thank you, I was just about to comment the same thing. two threads thick, laid double. so 4 strands. that's why the fringe was about to be a little thin and it is, finally.

I gigglesnorted at 25:00 or so when you got all excited about sc'ing a square, lolol. I can't even complete a washcloth using the sc st, it's soooooooo boring and takes so long to complete a project using it, lol. I call this st my nemesis whenever I see a project I'd like to do but it calls for the entire thing being done in sc's. Nope. Not doin' it, LOLOL! And, yes, that last bit with the fringe, LOLOLOL. I was literally laughing out loud when I saw the DUH comment on the screen because I knew you'd finally figured out what the instructions meant, lolol. It's all good though. Yours came out very lovely and I'm sure it's much appreciated by many of us that you take the time to decipher these old patterns. Once again, a wonderful video, so glad I subscribed!
Thank you! I’ve always loved the older crochet patterns. I look forward to seeing more of your videos! God bless!
Thank you! God bless to you as well ❤️
Thanks for showing this. I love wearing shawls and wraps better than sweaters or coats, which I find restrictive. I wear shawls while working around the house or in the garden. I will be making this next fall out of a washable wool for the winter without the fringe. With the double layer, it will be especially warm on a snowy day.
Love history and Love crochet tho I just started a year ago! When I when , when , when I make this shawl I’m gonna keep it for my self! I’ve been making them to sell but this is one just watching you make I’ll keep just for me!
Oh, you are amazing! I’ve looked at these vintage patterns and my brain gets too twisted. Brava for your perseverance!
Thank you so much for that 😊
Thank you!!! I've been looking for this for ages.😊❤
Stunning! I’m going to make this as a prayer blanket for someone who just lost a loved one.
Oh, I love that idea! :)
So interesting. It's like going back in time. Beautiful shawl. Thank you for the informative content!
Oh my goodness 😮It’s so beautiful. I will try making it. Thankful for ladies like you. Patient and real🥰
Thank you :)
Hello I found your channel looking for a baby blanket stitch and I this video came up I look at the video and my head went crazy very interesting Victorian crochet you have your work is beautiful and well that day start follow you🙂thank you 🌻
That is awesome! thank yo so much , and welcome :).... I do have some baby patterns coming up in a few weeks
The finished shawl is amazing
it looks like sometimes you are doing yarn under instead of yarn over, it makes a slight difference in the look of it, but I also love vintage patterns and glad you were in my recommends!
Yes, I was sorta playing around with it , I was also playing with blo yarn under just to see what that would look like on a sc granny square lol
Wow this is really pretty. Thank you for sharing.
You’re very welcome 😊
I really like the shawl! Thanks for the video!
I love this, thank you.
Gorgeous. Thanks for figuring it out and sharing it with us
I could be a fantastic beginner as well as a total disaster in crocheting. I simply cannot make out the stitches even when I place a marker. The count is totally off. Your explanation and video are so clear that I think you are my best bet. I'm going to try your vintage shawl. Thank you.
Well, Thank yo so much , I truly hope it works out for you , and please let me know if I can help any further :)
Really spectacular translation of the beautiful pattern. Bravo 👏
Wow, such an undertaking with some detective work too! 😉 Your shawl/blanket is stunning. You did an amazing job on it. Thank you for doing the tutorial, its very much appreciated. 🩷
You are so welcome! and thank you :)
that's a lovely shawl, can't wait to have a try at this pattern
Thanks for sharing
You’re welcome 😊
This is beautiful!
That turned out beautifully! I have the same problem with my antique patterns for doilies! Much of the terminology is just so different. It takes a lot of frogging and calculating, but they eventually turn out!!
You did an incredible job of figuring that out. I've never made anything out of single crochet either. It looks really warm. Got to be honest, I think the fringe would look better with two strands. I just might try to make this. I agree about Walmart Mainstay yarn. I bet it's more than $3. a skein now, however. I really enjoyed the friendly way you spoke, like we were right there with you like friends. It was really fun watching and i'm subscribing. Thank you so much for all your hard work I feel the same. I like to go off in my own world of crochet.
I love it. Simple but substantial. 😀. And I would not have thought to buy Mainstay yarn. I’m going to check that out. Thank you!
That’s a perfect description, simple but substantial, love it!
Yeah, it’s limited in color selection but great for big projects that don’t require a special kind of color 👍👍
I agree with Corinna on it's softness. So much softer than RHSS's solid colors. The only unfortunate aspect of Mainstays is there isn't a lot of color variants; just standard colors with a few with light and dark versions, like the blue. But still not a bad price compared to RHSS, which is nearly doubled in price since covid hit.
@@thewitchhut63 indeed, Red heart prices are ridiculous now!
Great substitutes that I now use are the Walmart mainstays ($3), and Joann’s Big Twist ( $4) and bernat pound of love works out to be a better deal too , especially for big projects like blankets
I really felt as if I was in the room with you, sitting in a lazy chair sewing right along with you. You look very regal in the reveal! I hope mine works out as lovely. Thank you!
Oh thank you! I feel like Im talking to people and not my phone when Im filming , I just go there :)
I found this video because I had been looking for the Yuba County 5, but I’m so glad I found you channel
You did a great job as usual, it's beautiful ❤
Wow. Very impressive deciphering of an old pattern! I’m gonna give it a try!! Thanks for sharing!
you're welcome! and thank you :)
Love, love, love your vintage videos! I am just placing fringe on this shawl but had to use 8mm hook instead. Also made the circular lacing capelet TWICE!! I am a huge fan. Keep it up.
Absolutely gorgeous! ❤❤❤
Thank you!!😊
I need to figure out what colors I’d like to use with this… maybe charcoal with grey? This is so pretty, and I’m sure it’s super warm! Edit: subbed! I am addicted to vintage patterns. This is so neat. Thank you!
Thank you so much and welcome !!🤗
I want to make this! Also, I love the Mainstays yarn from Walmart. Some of my favorite projects were made with that yarn, which is so inexpensive! I find that it tends to be softer than the Red Heart. I love your channel so much!
I just came across your channel and subscribed. You are amazing.! I love your channel!!!! This turned out lovely. 💗
Yay! Welcome 🤗
Just watched the video and thought I could use all my odd balls of worsted yarn as there is loads from when I used to knit aran jumpers. I don't make them now as old age and arthritis is setting in. Enjoy watching your videos
I love your nails!
thank you :)
Hi Corinna- what a complicated pattern. I’d say you’re a crochet genius to be able to decipher this and present it in tutorial form.
I’m watching. I’m learning- but I haven’t attempted…yet. 😉
Thank you so much for that :)
@@justvintagecrochet 💕
Very lovely :)
I think you can scan your patterns as a pdf and add to knit companion and manage them in that app.
Love KnitCompanion! I use it all the time!
I’m glad you figured this out because I never would have! 😅 Thanks for posting it, I love these old patterns. 🥰. Wanted to add that it turned out great!
You’re very welcome, and thank you 😊
That’s so pretty. Great job
