1940's Knitting - Aufgetrennt Und New Gestrickt Fur Damen
Aufgetrennt Und New Gestrickt Fur Damen
(New Stitches and Styles for Women)
Written in German
I was recently contacted by the very lovely and very glamourous Ingrid from Couturette, who wondered if I would like to link up to the vintage german magazines she publishes on her blog! Well one look and I was sold, they are fabulous and I will be linking up to the others soon. Though I can't read more than the odd word it doesn't matter as they are just so lovely to look at, and might even inspire me to learn a little german!
