Weldon's Practical Needlework newsletter reprints,
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Weldon's Practical Needlework, Volume 10 (Weldon's Practical Needlework series) (Hardcover)
This whole series is a wonderful resource for anyone doing any needlework or craft that would have been used by the average woman in the late Victorian era. It not only covers both knitting and crochet, but also various types of embroidery and craft projects. It's certainly worth trying to get the entire series.
