Vintage knits

Have mainly been making baby things lately - a blanket off the top of my head and a dress I adapted from a pattern I'cve found on the internet - patterns and pics to follow.
My current project is making a fine scarf in a soft green and gold - its crochet in an open work style and very pretty. I got the idea after I heard fashions this summer are going to be influenced by the 1920's - and I love that era, floating fluid clothes, cloche hats and art deco - beautiful. Will post a pic once its finished, am planning to fringe it with gold beading, as long as my patience lasts!
Have been doing some research and have found some fascinating website with old fashioned knitting, crochet and embroidery books - have posted a link to the Antique Pattern Library on the side bar. Its exquisite work and when you think alot of it was done by lamp / candle light or dim wavering gas lights, its even more breathtaking. And surprisingly the jumpers, wraps etc of the early 19oo's aren't much different to the fashions we have now in terms of shapes etc........so I think I'm in for a happy and challenging spring and summer making things from yesteryear!
