Vintage knitting & crochet patterns - the history revealed & the knits created.
Welcome Patternistas if you are interested in a community sharing a passion for
1)the history of home knitting, 2)looking for pattern inspiration to knit or crochet, 3)looking for inspiration for vintage styles from primary source materials in vintage knitting patterns.
As a knitter / crocheter, there is definitely another hobby within the hobby - acquiring yarns and patterns for your next project. So why not grab your needles or hook or just your favourite drink and browse for your next cast on?
Copyright of patterns respected but videos share the names of the patterns so you can find them secondhand on reselling sites, in your local charity or thrift stores or maybe an older friend/relative or local knitting group.
So let's unravel knitting pattern collecting. There are patterns for babies, kids, women and men as well as miscellaneous items.

Anyone heading to the Royal Highland Show this weekend for some sheepy BFL goodness? Have a look at some must see things to do for a yarn lover. youtube.com/shorts/kFjzYFc2GX....
I even got some quiet knitting done in the Main Ring stand yesterday. Always good to see where our wool comes from. It goes through a lot of hands to get to our needles.
