Hi Julie! Thanks so much for reading more in depth about this topic on my blog! It’s so cool that you make historically informed costumes and I love that you’re now able to incorporate crochet as well. Best of luck!!

I found out about your website via Just Vintage Crochet on YouTube. As I am one of those silly fools who make historical costumes, I’m taking a stab at these two little purses now for myself and my blog.

Thank you for doing all the research and for translating the first crochet pattern into English. It seems that crochet is a relative late-comer to the needle arts when you consider knitting and tatting.

Thank you for your time in researching and writing it! Great writing that even covers the painful social histories of exploitation of craftspeople.
