Vintage Little Girl's Knitting Book

Here is a delightful vintage book -
The Little Girl's Knitting & Crochet Book
edited by Flora Klickmann
Instead of showing a lot of the patterns
found in the book, I thought that I
would show you a lot of the lovely
images of little girls knitting.

A Little Look at Wool Ads

The advertisements shown here all appear
in the Weldon's Practical Needlwork
publications - such as -

Outdoor Wear for Children
ABC of Knitting
Hats & Bonnets for Babies
Bootees
First Woollies for Baby
Knitted Laces
Woollies for the First Two Years
Shawls
....etc.

They are from the 1930's.
