Recently relocated to America from the UK. I love a good mooch around a car boot sale, house tag or estate sale, and even the posh antique shops can lure me in with their gorgeous, historical items. Anything one-of-a-kind, hand embroidered and pretty will get my attention. By rescuing these patterns from oblivion, and offering them here, I feel I am going my bit to help carry on with the designs made decades ago and the artists who designed them will live on in the garments completed by modern knitters.
