<p><strong>Description: </strong></p>
<p><span>2 turned wood darning eggs, measuring 6" high and 11" high. Date and maker unknown. Condition: Fair to Good </span></p>
<p><span>I inherited these darning eggs from my paternal grandmother more than twenty years ago. She lived in Western Massachusetts most of her life, and was accomplished at all forms of needlework. She had a degree in Home Economics from Simmons College in Boston, Massachusetts, and worked as a social worker during the Depression. I do not know whether she also inherited these tools, as I did, or bought them new in the 1920s or 1930s. </span><span>Darning eggs were used as supports for the tedious work of repairing holes in socks and sweaters. </span></p>
<p><span>Neither darning egg is marked with a maker’s name or date. The smaller one measures approximately 6” long; its quaint, turned handle is permanently affixed to the egg. The larger one is a multi-purpose, “Swiss Army”-styled, modular darning-tool-and-carry-case all in one. Fully assembled, it measures 11”, but the egg-shaped top can be removed and used alone, or attached to either the top or bottom section of the carry case to make two shorter darning tools measuring 5” and 7”. Originally, the pieces probably fitted and held together neatly and securely, but the wood has expanded and all the joins have loosened over time. </span></p>
<p><span>Inside the carry case was an assortment of 8.5” unmarked steel sock needles ranging from Size 0000 to Size 00 – very small by today’s standards – and a crochet hook marked “Milward 13”. I do not know whether the needles and hook came with the darning egg, or were added later by my grandmother.</span></p>
<p><span>I</span>n 2015, I used these darning eggs as originally intended to mend a pair of socks. <span> </span>In one of the images that accompanies this post, you can see that once I put the darning egg inside the sock, the support it provided made it easier to see and overstitch the threadbare areas. You can read more about my observations on the current interest in repairing and mending garments, and how to use a darning egg on the CKC Blog: <a href="https://centerforknitandcrochet.org/the-art-of-mending/">“The Art of Mending” published on June 26, 2015</a>. I am now very grateful to have these simple, specialized tools on hand.</p>

An account of the resource
<p>A single baby shoe (there is no other one), probably made by my grandmother Maria Antonia Ludovici Martinez (1905-1991). Source of design unknown, crocheted of thread that has yellowed and browned unevenly, found in a box containing her unfinished projects. The little open toe at the front of the shoe makes it like a sandal, and the side opening and tie are very interesting details to me.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>A coverlet made of motifs known as Venetian Squares made by my grandmother. I don't know her pattern source, but the pattern is known to be published in: Venetian Crochet: Patterns For 1915 Motif, Collar and Lace Edging, Needlecraft Publishing Co., Published 1915, and Figure 36 in the same publisher’s <a href="http://www.antiquepatternlibrary.org/pub/PDF/HandbookOfCrochet2.pdf">Handbook of Crochet No. 2</a>, available in PDF form from the Antique Pattern Library. It was also published earlier, in 1900, in Sophie Tatum LaCroix's <a href="https://archive.org/details/oldnewdesignsin00lacr/page/6/mode/2up">Old and New Designs in Crochet Work</a> as motif no. 201 on page 6, available in the Internet Archive, where it says, "This design originated in Bohemia." I don't know if my grandmother considered the coverlet finished--there is no added edging around the borders. I inherited this after her death in a box with other crochet projects of hers, and I don't know if it was ever used before I received it.</p>

An account of the resource
<p>Apple-shaped potholders made by my grandmother Maria Antonia Ludovici Martinez (1905-1991); source of pattern unknown, perhaps improvised, in what feels like cotton. My grandmother used these, and I inherited them after her death -- her dishes were the Franciscan Apple pattern, and she had a lot of reds and whites in her kitchen. It looks like the fronts and backs were crocheted separately, then crocheted together, with the green leaves and hangers crocheted last.</p>

Description
An account of the resource
<p>I made this cardigan in the late 1960s or early 1970s and cannot find the pattern source. The yarn is likely Red Heart or something similar from the period in a worsted weight. Small pink and green flowers are embroidered along the top of the gathered waist, the top of the three-inch ribbing on the puffed long sleeve, along the button band, and over the top of the ribbing going over the shoulders. </p>
