The Mary Frances knitting and crocheting book

Jane Eayre Fryer First published 1918

About this book

This quaint title from the 1918 uses a children’s story to walk girls through the steps in making a complete wardrobe for a doll as they learn to knit and crochet. For a reproduction doll maker this book would be a treasure trove of genuine period patterns.

Includes a section at the back of patterns for "Red Cross Knitting" - warm garments for the boys at the front.
