Shopping With Grama
Perhaps you’ve seen “Shopping With Grama” as part of my “Bobbie Sox and Polka Dots” pattern set. Here it is as it first appeared, on its own, 2nd Prize Winner in the Crochet Pattern-A-Day Calendar contest for 2010!
Shopping With Grama reminds me of growing up in a time of hot pink and turquoise, polka dots and pearl necklaces, and going shopping with my Grama every Friday morning. Malls were unheard of, and you always looked your best to go Uptown.
I vividly remember full-skirted dresses with scratchy crinoline underneath to make them “pouffy” and saddle shoes (both of which I hated!). Grama dressed carefully, “putting on her face,” doing her nails, and topping it all off with a smart hat.
The Shopping With Grama pattern set includes Dress, Crinoline Half Slip, Pearl Necklace, and even a Pocketbook!
This pattern set is available as an electronic download, but if you prefer, a printed version is available exclusively from http://www.treasuredheirloomscrochet.com/poodleskirts.html.
PLEASE NOTE: If you have previously purchased my “Bobbie Sox and Polka Dots” pattern set, you already have “Shopping With Grama!”
