Description

"Peace Dale Knitting Book," published by Peace Dale Mills, M. T. Stevens and Sons Company, 1922. There is some information on the Mills and how its products can assist in the making of stylish clothing. Ten examples of Peace Dale yarns are listed, followed by hundreds of clothing types with lists of materials, the pattern, and directions. There are many photographs as illustrations, as well as helpful suggestions, including crochet stitch and knitting stitch directions. While the pages are clean, the wrappers have tears at the spine, edge rubbing, heavu soiling, and a loose binding, so the condition is fair.
