Description

The listing, Vintage Phildar Crochet Book from the UK has ended.

This is for a wonderful Phildar crochet book that I bought when I lived in England. It is from sometime between 1978 and 1984, but I can't find a date on it. It is a paperback (magazine) type pattern book, with color photographs and plenty of charts for the patterns. I believe it to be complete. It is in good used condition.

The patterns are all vintage. There are afghans, bed throws, lots of doilies, lace curtains, tablecloths, pineapple stitch, filet crochet patterns, and all sorts of home decorating ideas. Think Laura Ashley, and shabby chic. That's what you will find in this book.

Shipping is free to the US, media rate. Don't hesitate to ask me questions about the patterns if you have them; I'll try to answer as thoroughly as possible. Thanks for looking and have fun!

Questions & Comments

Are the patterns for beginners???

I really wouldn't like to say. I mean, anything is easy when you know how to do it. Once you know how to read the chart, you're home free. I'm not an expert crocheter, and I can follow the charts, but I wouldn't say these were for absolute beginners, no. Perhaps more intermediate skills?

Great! It's an awesome book -- I just don't crochet that much, preferring to knit instead.

It is a really nice book, I just don't crochet any more. I've had it yonks, one of my favs, but I'm downsizing now. My surplus is your delight!

48, but I'm not sure if that counts the pull-out charts or not.
