Description

Weldon's Practical Needlework was a popular Victorian magazine of knit, crochet, patchwork, and other 'useful articles' involving needlework. Published in England roughly between 1885 and 1915, it offered women of the burgeoning middle class a variety of technical instructions and projects. Now available as an extravagant boxed set, Weldon's Practical Needlework: Deluxe Edition contains the first 6 volumes of the series. Each hard-cover volume is comprised of 12 monthly issues. In addition to knit and crochet, each volume contains a variety of decorative needlework: crewel, appliqué, cross-stitch, macramé, smocking, bead netting, and other lesser-known techniques.
