Love of Vintage Crochet Patterns

Hello!

Thank you for popping up here, I appreciate it. If you are new, please stay awhile & introduce yourself. I go on about a variety of simple joys, and today is not different, today's choice of joy is about Vintage Crochet Patterns. I don't have many pamphlets, or books which would be considered vintage in nature. I have a few thread pamphlets.

The pattern calls for a fashion doll.

Before I get to that, I'm going to provide a link to a previous posting about a vintage Barbie Doll.

While I like her current outfit very much, I thought I might be able to change it out after I crochet this new/old pattern. We'll see. 

Received in the mail this morning the pattern pamphlet, it is in pristine condition, this afternoon I'm going through my thread yarn to see what I might like to do. I believe this pattern is from 1990's, it's vintage already....oh bother.  What is it, anything over 25 years?  

That is me and & then some...Oh Bother.!

     She is most lovely. I will not be doing wings on her at this time. I do love those bell sleeves. 

I had no project as I was waiting for this pamphlet. The cardigan wasn't right in the sleeve area, so yesterday I frogged both sleeves and will make them again, later. Had enough of that project for now. 

The Joy is in the making, I did stop at hobby lobby today their yarn 30% off, I did not have a fall enough color in my tinker box, so I picked up Topaz to work this Angel. Also, 

 

I picked up this sampler box of mini crochet thread, ( sorry about the picture quality), that Hobby Lobby carries. Some I would not want or wouldn't use in a full size ball, so this will be good for smaller projects, and when I crochet the applique pieces or embellishments.  

That's my story, I'm stickin to it. I've made a good amount of progress on the Harvest Angel already.
