How to Crochet 46 Useful Edgings and

Insertions for all Purposes

ieceWork magazine is pleased to present this exact reproduction (neither

alterations nor corrections were made to the original published in the
1800s) of Weldons Practical Crochet. 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. Needleworkers of that era would be amazed to see their favorite crochet
patterns in a virtual format of which they could never have dreamed.
In an effort to bring needlework to the emerging middle class, Weldons, a
paper pattern producer 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 Weldons Practical Needlework. This series was
included in Volume 2.
We have reproduced for you here the crochet material from the Fifth Series. The
46 projects range from simple to ornate and include borders, edgings, and insertions.
The English crochet notations might perplex a contemporary crocheter accustomed to
detailed and succinct directions, but the patterns are often ingenious, and many of the
objects transcend the century-plus span of years since they were devised.
This electronic book serves as a curiosity, an inspiration, a resource, and a link
to a time beyond our memories. In using and enjoying it, you keep the craft alive.
