Description: Victorian Needle Arts, Volume II Knit and Crochet SONTAG Patterns by Lynne Harriman, 24 page booklet, copyright 2009.. New, clean and unused booklet. Contains hard to find patterns for a crocheted or knitted Sontag cross-shawl in easy to follow modern directions. Sized for child-regular and large, teen/adult petite, regular and plus sizes with edging options. During much of the 1800's crochet and knit "vests" were featured in many of the fashion magazines. From the booklet: "This wonderful "wrap around" garment is very functional for keeping your upper body warm while leaving your arms free. It ties or buttons at the back keeping the garment close to your torso and out of the fire, food, wash water and other hazards. There are many names for this crocheted or knitted garment garment from the basic: sontag, spencer, habit shirt, and cross-over shawl, to the more whimsical; bosom friend or heart-warmer. They all refer to a garment that is worn on the upper body. It is generally believed that the name sontag commemorates Henriette Sontag (1806-1854), a German operatic singer, ennobled in 1836. Sontag is "Sunday" in German." The booklet contains a patterns for a Sontag which can be adjusted to fit any size from girl to plus size. Also included are lots of reproductions from Civil War era publications, general instructions: Crochet, Knitting in both stocking stitch and seed stitch, and Edging patterns. From the booklet: "Our patterns are modern interpretations of period instructions. When possible I have included the original inspiration item, pattern or article so that you can have the documentation for your education and research. All are designed and selected help you create items from the Victorian Era (1830's through the turn-of-the century.)" I am happy to combine shipping on multiple items.
