Here is a vintage clip art illustration of a ball of yarn with two knitting needles inserted through it. The yarn is sitting on a small piece of knitting. The image is from an ad in a booklet titled Smocking and Fancy Stitches for the Decoration of Garments that was published by The Butterick Publishing Co. in May 1892.

Oh my…..this is my new obsession! Thanks for finding & sharing this sweet image!
I bet we have come along way in colors and texture. This a oh so fun print though. Thank you so much.
You’re welcome LeAnne and Diana. I’m glad you like it!
Diana, I bet you’re right about the colors and textures. 🙂
Hi,
I’m having trouble downloading the knitting mage I like.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Hi Gloria,
If you click your mouse directly on this small preview, the large size image will open. Once that is open, you can save it to your computer by right clicking your mouse on the image and selecting “Save image as” and choosing a place on your computer to save the image.
