Mrs Beeton's Book of Needlework -
Crochet
Work
Spiral Bound
Book Republication™
Originally
Published - 1870!
Up for bid is another marvelous Dakota Prairie Treasures CD Republication™ of the original
"Mrs. Beeton's Book of Needlework Crochet Work." This information was originally published
1870! It has been out of public circulation for over 120 years but you can have
it now with all the convenience of modern computer technology!
This HISTORIC item contains 100 pages of
etchings, instructions, diagrams, designs and fundamentals for creating, with
silk, cotton or linen thread, delicately beautiful Irish Crochet style
doilies, beaded purses, laces, edgings, antimacassars and more! You will also find
many historical facts on this venerable craft and artistry! (Original is not for
sale)
Our new
line of Spiral Bound Book Republications™ oh-so-conveniently lie flat while in
use!
This is a unbelievably nice touch if you have every tried to read a pattern's instructions while your hands are full of your in progress project. As an avid needleworker myself my personal experience prompted my choice of spiral binding for it's ease-of-use alone. I bet you'll love it too!
*** Producing the best CD & Spiral Bound Book Republications for you since 1999! ***
Our
customers say:
"Highly Recommended Seller - Great Communications, Fast Service,
Great Items!"
"What a great book-sure glad I found you-got it today-fast
shipper-A++++"
"fast shipping , excellent communication, would buy again. Thank
you A-1!"
This type of Irish Lace Crochet Doilies, using various
colored threads for the different flower and leaf motifs, is all the new rage in
my latest Annie's Attic catalog. Who would have thought this style of crochet is
thought of as new and innovated when it really is over 137 years
old!
These instructions are characteristic of the crocheted needlework done by our lady
ancestors! This is the perfect opportunity to purchase your own version of
another wonderful craft book revealing our heritage from early America and
Europe!
What a historically educational and delightful art
instructional piece this is!
