The Miser's Purse. Laura Camerlengo

Чтение книги онлайн.

СКАЧАТЬ purses with bands of flowers and leaves were preferred in the late 1850s (fig. 11). In the 1860s, Godey’s featured purses with cone-shaped beaded accents, such as this knitted blue-and-white purse from the magazine’s October 1863 issue (fig. 12). Crocheted purses with ombré roll stitches were fashionable in the late 1870s (fig. 13). Godey’s August 1877 issue offered comprehensive instructions on how to crochet a purse with these round stitches in blue and claret ombré (fig. 14).

      Some writers and editors even copied purse patterns from other purses and publications, which may explain the proliferation of certain designs. In June 1854, for example, Peterson’s Magazine published a gentlemen’s long purse pattern that was said to be an imitation of the latest miser’s purse style from Paris. Deemed “an unusually elegant pattern” by the author, Mademoiselle Defour, the black netted silk purse was darned with a “simple zig-zag pattern…entirely in gold [thread with] two very handsome tassels in black and gold, and slides to correspond.” In March 1858, Godey’s featured a “crochet purse, in colored silks,” which was copied verbatim from Peterson’s Magazine’s December 1857 issue. This blue purse featured bands of “flowers in crimson” and “leaves in green” with one round and one square end.
