Vogue Knitting Vintage Collection: Classic Knits From the 1930s-1960s
They come from another time—but now they’re classics. Chic and stylish knits from the original Vogue Pattern Books of the 1930s–1960s return in an enchanting one-of-a-kind collection with more than 40 fabulous garments for everybody in the family. Fully illustrated, and updated with the latest yarns, this project book includes party dresses, pullovers, jackets and wraps for her; sweaters and vests for him; and sunsuits, caps, and booties for the baby. Among the perennial fashion winners: a short-sleeved silk top for spring, a chunky coat for fall, a cabled V-neck, a girl’s heart twinse
What a combination! Two of today’s trendiest fiber arts come together like yarn and hooks in this newest On the Go title: crochet and felting. Colorfully illustrated, and with great projects that range from bags, scarves, and blankets to toys, a notebook cover, and even a set of baskets, it’s got something for crocheters of all skill levels. Sweet rosettes adorn either end of the irresistibly fuzzy lavender scarf. Two attractively designed totes sport vivid hues: one comes in rich sea blues and greens, the other features lots of hot pink and orange. And any child would love the cuddly stuffed penguin.
Designer handbags are all the rage, but their designer-style price tags can be prohibitive. With Bags Two, knitters of all levels can make their own for a fraction of the cost—and have twenty boutique worthy purses, guilt-free. Choose from both classic styles and today’s hottest trends: an elegant evening bag with a dainty scallop pattern; a basketweave messenger satchel, felted and reinforced with bamboo dowels for extra support; a ’60s-style handbag with all-over bobbles, in an eye-catching orange; a trendy boho-inspired purse with beaded fringe; and many more.
