If you find Fleischer's Knitting and Crocheting manuals on eBay and they don't cost a fortune, pick them up - they have some beautiful designs in them. I think this Huntington Sweater from the Thirteenth Edition (1915) is pretty sweet. Also, Fleischer's used great paper, so the magazines tend to be in very nice shape. |

Wouldn't this look great in, say, black or brown? I think it looks cool as is in this gold color, but I'd look like crap in it, so there ya go. Workbasket, June, 1979. Who knew? |

This McCall's How to Crochet from 1973 features a beautiful vest with corset-style lacing in the front. I think it works in these colors, but would look smashing in grey/black for an edgier feel. |

I think this vest from 1919 is a stunner with beautiful tailoring. Corticelli had lovely designs and is worth seeking out on auction sites. This particular issue featured Irene Castle on the cover and throughout the magazine. |

Um, does it show that I really like vests? I thought so. Anyway, while the hat screams 1995 when it appeared in McCall's Crochet magazine, I think the vest is interesting enough to transcend it's period. Period. |

Can we talk hot? And this is Woman's Day??? Holy crap! I wouldn't touch a thing here! In fact, I'm on the lookout for some serious ochre gloves and belt to match this amazing jacket! |

Woman's Day 1950 -- again! The description called this a bed jacket in pink nylon. How cool would it be with a black high-waisted pencil skirt? Very! |
