I have some vintage crochet, knitting, needlework books and leaflets which I am ready to let go. I received these from my dh's grandma. They are all in pretty nice shape cosmetically, but have a slight musty odor. I have copied all the patterns I want from them and am ready to send them on their way to someone else who might be able to use them. There are tons of great patterns that are still in style or are back in style (retro)...


McCall's How to CROCHET IT! book 1 copyright 1973; Woman's Day 101 sweaters you can knit & crochet copyright 1971; 1001 fashion & needlecraft ideas book 3 copyright 1971; Leisure Arts Crocheted critters leaflet 109 copyright 1977. - all to Bonne

Teach yourself to crochet in just one day! leaflet 7 copyright 1972; Columbia-minerva Teach yourself to Knit the easy way book 770 copyright 1968;McCall's step-by-step crochet lesson for beginners book 4 copyright 1971; Woman's Day Granny Squares number 9 copyright 1981; McCall's step-by-step crochet lesson for beginners copyright 1968; The Not-so-nimble needlework book by Iris Rosenthal copyright 1977 - all to Sage

Leisure Arts Snowflake layette jacket, hat, booties and afghan to crochet leaflet 59 copyright 1975 - to Alee

Thanks!
Here's a picture of them:

Beth; What fun looking through the instruction books! I can't believe what was being crocheted and knitted in the seventies. Sent your postage out today and thanks again. Sage
