Knit One Purl One

Today I thought I would blog about my other etsy shop, Vogue Vintage Knits,  which focuses on vintage 1930s-1950s knitting and crochet patterns.  I'm afraid I'm really a woeful knitter and crocheter, but that doesn't stop me from coveting some of the items in the shop!

 1930s Crochet & Knit Evening Dress

Etsy Listing # 31495987 

One of my customers purchased this pattern to make for an early autumn wedding dress for herself.  I think that it would absolutely gorgeous dress for the occasion.

Poodle Sweater

Vogue Knitting 1951

Etsy Listing # 53727557

Of all the patterns available in my shop, this one is my absolute favorite.  I think this woman looks spectacular with her poodle sweater and long black gloves.  The net tied on her head really adds some pizazz!

1940s Jack London Crochet Handbag

Etsy Listing # 60502938

I love this handbag by Jack London.  There is a very nice selection of these handbags in the shop, and each one of them is the epitome of 1940s chic! 

1953 Vogue Shrug

Etsy Listing # 13856367

Now, this is about the extent of what my knitting skills allow me to make.  I did make a couple of these last year and they are really so simple, even I can do it!

 1950s Little Girls Bolero Sweater

Etsy Listing # 56205828

And last, but not least, this is just the sweetest little pattern! 

There are lots more vintage patterns in the shop, so please stop by!
