Weldon's Practical Knitter, Series 29-32

PieceWork magazine is pleased to present this exact reproduction from Weldon’s Practical Needlework . It is a fitting example of needlework and history, hand in hand.

This electronic pattern book opens a window on another time and another place. The time is the turn of the twentieth century and the place is London, England. In an effort to bring needlework to the emerging middle class, Weldon’s, a paper pattern company of the Victorian era, began to publish monthly newsletters devoted to various crafts (beading, knitting, crochet, patchwork, and the like). These newsletters were typically 14 pages and cost 2 pence. Later, they were collected into book form, titled Weldon’s Practical Needlework . This series was included in Volume 10.
