Civil War Era
I have been collecting pre-Great War era and Civil War era patterns for years and am finally making some of them. If you have any questions or would like to custom order something please contact me:
I really enjoyed knitting this Civil War era sweater with 3 pockets. I like the accent color along the edges.
This CW sweater I made doesn’t have buttons, as the customer I knitted it for had their own buttons to sew on.
This was the first CW sweater I ever made. The customer selected the colors and an original CW photo for me to work from. The vertical stripes were very tedious and time consuming. I would only make more of these sweaters if I was paid a lot of money (haha).
The first photo in this montage is from the original illustration in the 1903 Scottish pattern. The other photos are the one I made. I was excited to add this crocheted balaclava to the list of items I now make.
