Needlework Patterns The following patterns are taken from original period sources, be it an original garment or Ladies magazine. The patterns are offered as is, no guarantee or further instructions due to the fact I can not knit or crochet. All the patterns here are offered as a "memorial" to the fine women in my family and circle of friends that have gone on, but not before they instilled a love of fine needlework in me.
