Sunday Afternoon Diversions - Needlecraft Magazine 1967

 
Destash Alert - Purchase Here
Today I found this vintage Needlework & Crafts Magazine from 1967 in my bookshelf that is filled with amazing apparel to knit and crochet, felting projects, needlecrafts of all sorts and even wooden puzzle toys for the woodworker - definitely a catch all book for crafters.


If this type of magazine was still on the newstands today I would be picking up my copy every month.


Don't you just love the false eyelashes and uber size earrings in orange and pink?


I so want this crafting tote with the little girl with scissor handle wings - yes, the pattern is inside.

Crochet and knitted dresses for Spring - love them!

 
Another fun dress to knit.


Tons of crazy ads in the back - did women really wear these???


Wooden puzzle toy patterns for the woodworker - yee haw!


I love the red chaps and six shooter!


Love.love.love - this little caveman pattern.


Crochet cowgirl hat in time for Spring - pattern inside.


Knitted things for baby....


Knitted bikini - yes, the pattern is inside.


Fun coverups for the pool to crochet and knit.

I hope you enjoyed peeking inside this issue as much as I have and I am destashing and putting it in my online store for sale - Purchase Here.  It's part of my New Year's Resolution to destash, so here goes the first thing up for sale.  Enjoy!

Julie... I was born in May of 1967. This mag has my name all over it! My mother loved to sew, but not so much knitting. Some of these pictures remind me of her.
