Jun. 30th, 2015 06:46 pmWhile browsing a little on Ravelry today, I encountered the lace pattern that I was using for an attempt at petticoat lace. The difference? This pattern was printed in "Godey's Lady's Book" in 1888. It is duplicated verbatim in Butterick's 1892 publication "The Art of Knitting." I love the way that seems to have happened. The book also includes a pattern for a blue bag that was previously printed in 1872. It kind of makes me wonder what other patterns I'll find that have been pulled from previously published sources.
