I slutet av oktober jag gick kurs för Annemor Sundbö i att sticka Selbumönster. Häromdagen, på självaste nyårsafton, blev de klara så nu slipper Herrn i huset frysa om fingrarna när han skottar snö!
  

Häromdagen "sprang jag på" en riktig guldgruva. Det är VintageKathleen som startat en blogg för ett projekt. Hon köpte en gammal bok i ett antikvariat. Den innehöll beskrivningar på 40-talet spetsmönster.

Thankyou VintageKathleen for your wunderful project and all the patterns!

Ett axplock av hennes egna ord om projektet saxat från hennes blogg:

"Twenty-five pages with clippings and handwritten instructions for knitted lace patterns, about 40 in all, primarily edgings and insertions. Most are accompanied by small samples worked in fine thread.

This blog chronicles the patterns found in a late-Victorian composition book that was used by an anonymous east-central Illinois knitter as a knitted lace sample book. Some of the instructions were clipped out of newspapers, others written out by hand. Most were accompanied by a small sample worked in fine thread. For more on the original book, see post #1, The Project. Phase Two of the blog documents the patterns in another late-Victorian knitter's notebook from my collection described in the August 2010 post Son of the Project. While including many knitted lace designs, the book also contains directions to make mittens, afghans, baby leggings and more."
