PRINCESS MANUAL OF ARTISTIC CROCHET

FUNDRAISING

OUR FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN HAS ENDED!  GOAL: 5000 USD AND CURRENTLY AT 104%!

To keep our Library up and running, we hold a fundraising campaign from September to December and I’m happy to say that it reached its goal!

More donations are always welcome 🙂 This is the link to the donation button: Donate to keep the Antique Pattern Library running!  

If you can’t afford to donate, but would like to help the Antique Pattern Library, introducing the Library to people who don’t know of it yet, is very useful, since it broadens our user base and therefore also our future donor base. Blogs, Tiktok, Instagram, Pinterest, Ravelry, Facebook, other social media – show others your favorite publications and what you made using them. Our work is only useful when people actually use it!

If that is not possible either, just enjoy our new publications either for inspiration or for your own work!

Although many items were more popular when this booklet was printed than they are now, there’s nothing to prevent you to make something unique to embellish your home with. I’m sure you won’t find these in shops. That said, maybe the crocheted candle shade is not such a good idea anymore in view of the fire risk. As lamp shade it would still be beautiful.
