Welcome! This ongoing project is an effort to scan craft pattern publications that are in the public domain, to preserve them, so we can keep our craft heritages in our hands. Most of these scans have been graphically edited to make the images easier for craft workers to see, and to reduce file sizes. They are available, for free, to anyone who wants them, for educational, personal, artistic and other creative uses. Click to go to our CATALOG PDF DETAIL PAGE The Mary Frances Knitting and Crocheting Book or Adventures among the Knitting People The John C. Winston Co., Philadelphia Copyright 1918, illustrated by Jane Allen Boyer. Hardcover book. Lovely story about Mary Frances and her doll Mary Marie, for whom Mary Frances learns to make clothes. Taught by her own knitting needles, ball of wool, crochet hook, yarn doll and a fairy who helps children who really want to learn, Mary Frances makes scarves, sweaters, hats, slippers, mittens and much more.

I-WB133 W O9046 Crochet Irish crochet Knitting Tatting Slipper SD PDF DETAIL PAGE Wunsch, Marie Lost In The Forest HANSEL and GRETEL Neyret Freres/Cash's STEVENGRAPH WOVEN SILK A woven silk image after a painting by Marie Wunsch of Hans and Gretel, titled Lost In The Forest, in two sizes. Such woven images are also called Stevengraphs after the inventor. The scans and photos do not do them justice, as changing light also changes the image, making it much more lively to look at than the static digital image ever can show. Compare the two sizes to see how the pattern was adapted to each size. The reverse side of each is also shown. The first image is a fair-use thumbnail of the original painting.
