for the love of vintage - retro crochet magazine

just fyi: thanks to blogger and their massive mess-up (love the wordplay, heehee), the comments to this post got lost.



whenever my sister and brother-in-law come over (or vice versa) we have a gift-giving night. this time, my favourite present came from my mum though. this vintage crochet magazine, from 1973. check out these cool retro designs! i'm in love with the colours. isn't this eye candy for anyone who loves crochet and has a soft spot for vintage as well?!

I'm very glad you like this book so much. Actually I had made some of those animals for different children in our congregation. I crocheted even 2 dresses: one for you - and when you didn't fit into it anymore, Simona got it - and I made a bigger one for you instead. The very first edition of those dresses I had made for little Dei, when she was with us.

too bad the comments got lost! i saw 5 when i looked at the post yesterday.
i had commented and said something along the lines of that book being a great present. and i was wondering if you picked a project in it already.
