Stitch Designs

When on my vintage shopping outings I always come across huge selections of vintage crochet and knitting patterns, catalogs and books which are not only fun to look at but exciting. Any person who has a strong passion for this craft would be in heaven and could find some great inspiration and ideas for their projects. During the 1940's through 1970's you were able to find elegant knitting and crochet dresses, coats, sweaters, suits and handbag creations made from beautiful colors, fine textures and the best styles of yarn
