This re-publication of the 1972 classic "A Stitch In Time" by Jane Waller, is a collection of original knitting and crochet patterns from the 1920s through the 1940s, with an overview of the style of each decade and its social context. The book has been used by stage, screen and TV for historical accuracy and is also a favourite of fashion colleges.

Now photographed in full colour, with multi-sized patterns and knitted in contemporary yarns, these beautiful vintage designs are once again available, and accessible to us all.

With 356 pages, this book contains 60 designs, showing both the original archive pattern and the new version.

Beautifully photographed and styled this new volume enhances and expands on the original whilst retaining all of its retro charm. This book is inspirational not just to the knitter but also to the designer, collector, fashion student, dress historian, stylist and anyone in love with yesteryear.
