We are helping Mom organize some of her "stuff", look at these neat books and patterns I found. She has lots of old patterns.
I have so many projects going, but look at this afghan on the foot of the bed. It is so pretty I may have to crochet this. This is in one of Mom's craft magazines from the 80's.
I have made some progress on my crochet bag from the Japanese pattern. I need to line it before I crochet the handle.
We went to a couple of yard sales this morning. I bought this wire dress form for 50 cents. It's 15 inches tall. I (hubby helped) took off most of the wire around it and added a few touches of my own. I think it turned out cute. But I was really tickled to get the old crochet magazines and books. I had never seen Crochet Magic magazine. Isn't that doily pattern pretty? The magazines are from the '80s and 90's. The two oldest books were from 1947 and 1943. I got the magazines and books for a dollar each. She had LOTS more but I was able to contain myself.
