Star Needlework Journal (January, 1925)
Star Needlework Journal, published in 1925 in New York by the American Thread Company, was a periodical of needlework and crochet patterns for home stitchers. Its pictures are small, high-contrast diagrams and photographs: a square filet-crochet chart, a needle drawing a thread through fabric, a stepped lace edging chart, and a beaded drawstring bag with fringe. A designer could draw on the grid-based charts for pattern repeats and on the bead bag for textured surface and fringe detail.
