The Modern Priscilla has the best covers -- this one is very gallant as the little boy hangs on to his passenger who dropped her knitting in the lake. The magazine is very clean nd nice, but it does have a snip off the lower front corner as well as on the next page. There's also a flat crease to front cover. You can feel it better than see it. This is big magazine measuring 10-1/2" x 14" with 44 pages. There's ideas and patterns for both practical and fancy sewing projects.

This is a really helpful instructional manual with much explanation and large bright photographs. It measures 6" x 9" and has 56 pages. It's clean and tightly bound with just a couple corner crease to cover. I have re-enforced them with almost invisible archival tape to keep them from snapping off.

Other projects include a corset cover (probably won't need that one!), a scarves, pillows, table covers, nightgowns, a child's dress, a baby bonnet, a bedspread and a bolster. ... View more info

This one's surprisingly hard to find and in quite good condition -- just a bit of isolated edge wear and a superficial crease to lower front corner to detract. No names and tightly bound. Illustrated throughout with pictures and charts. There is a little bit of penciled notation on one chart, but I left it because it may be helpful. If not, it would be easy to remove. There's also a slip of paper laid-in with other notes. The Speed-o-Knit was a knitting machine of the day. Offers instructions for clothing, plus info on parts of the machine and novelty tricks and variations. Booklet measures 8-... View more info

I'm not a knitter, but I love finding issues from Rowan because they're so attractive. This one is called the Cork Collection which I thought might be designs from Ireland. But research indicated that the photography was done in the Scottish Highlands, so I don't have a back-up guess. It doesn't matter anyway -- the designs are lovely and so are the models. There are fifteen designs in all with all patterns at the back of the book. Measures 8-1/2" x 11" and has 32 pages.S HIPS for $2 Media Mail in the U.S View more info
