Description

Our group is dedicated to recreating the beautiful knit, crochet, tatted, Berlin work, embroidered, sewn, beaded, and netted items of the Civil War era. We will work out the original directions, research the types of materials used, needle sizes, gauges, etc. so that our finished products will be as period correct as possible. Grab your knitting needles, crochet hooks, yarn, lace bobbins, embroidery needles, tatting shuttles, muslin and thread and come on in!
