I have a lot of vintage patterns that I have't seen elsewhere. Here are a few- Sources are noted. Many are from The Complete Book of Crochet, edited by Elizabeth Mathieson, Greystone Press, 1946. Many have also appeared in more than one place. Some are from torn old leaflets I don't know how to cite. I have recently acquired the very cool "Make Your Own Teenage Clothes and Gifts," and I hope to add somethings from there soon. |

| I love to make things, but I like to make cool things, and although I know that cool is relative, I am discouraged by the glut of country angel piglet toilet paper cozies*... so what's a girl to do? |

Crochet Treasures Old crochet patterns are a lot easier to find on the web than they used to be... this site is one of the first and best ones I found. |
|
Celts Crochet One of the biggest. Doilies, afgans, tablecloths, bedspreads, chairsets (including one called the "spread eagle." really.) Notable for its selection of icky yet wonderful 50's kitchen items. |
| about.com Many patterns, of all types, including old ones... all kinds of "how to" information. |
| Antique Crochet all kinds of fun things, including a number of things from 1920 or before... absolutely the best pictures. |
