Threadwinder.info - Postcards Depicting the Act of Crocheting

These are postcards depicting people (women and girls) doing crochetwork. The first 3 postcards are my earliest ones, with the one titled "Sweet Content" postmarked 1912.



On the left is a set of WWI "tricot" (French for knitting, but used as a generic term here,
because the lady is actually crocheting) postcards.



                                                        Again using "tricot" generically, more WWI French postcards depicting crochet.




These cards date from the 1920s-1930s.     The first is a "Vive Ste Anne" postcard.
St. Anne is the patron saint of domestic arts and most of the "Vive Ste Anne" postcards
feature sewing machines, but this one depicts a lady crocheting with an afghan crochet hook.


          Travel postcards sometimes depict crocheting.     Here are postcards from Brittany, France, the island of Malta, and Cyprus.
