Free Vintage Pattern #2

First, about the vintage patterns offered here. I will only post patterns from the 1930's or older to be sure the original copyright has run out. All nasty vintage pictures are fair game.


Now then.

Opera Bag, Bucilla Blue Book of Novelty & Filet Crochet, Volume no.6, (c)1916.

No finished size given. I'm guessing size 30 crochet cotton is similar to #10 lace weight pearle cotton or lace weight linen or silk, but could look pretty good no matter what yarn you use, unless you got a hankerin' to use bulky-weight acrylic.

And for Jah's sake, lay off the Fun Fur!
