Latest on ETSY-Knitted Lace edging patterns

From the English Needlecraft magazine of about 1910, I have posted 6 sets of knitted edging patterns. These are wonderful late Victorian, early Edwardian patterns. They would look great worked up for a guest towel or to finish off the end of a plain scarf. There are two designs to each pattern. Some also have an insertion version as well. ENJOY!

New on ETSY-Digital image for your computer desktop

I love this image from a Regency era print of two ladies winding balls of yarn. I have cleaned up the image and created a digital file that you can use for a computer desktop or screensaver. Just something different for a change...

This digital image is available from my store on ETSY. I can also provide instructions on how to set up an image as a desktop or screen saver. 


Thanks, Debby
