Below is a Columbia Yarns shawl pattern from abt 1900-1908, made into a tarot card pouch.

I'm using a 3.5mm hook and a fingering weight, 70% bamboo/30% cotton blend yarn, to much success!

The pattern is transcribed directly so it is a bit odd compared w/ modern crochet, but doable!
A photo of the corner of an unfinished crochet project. It is a rectangle made up of rows of dark purple star stitches and double crochets, alternating. It is placed upon a holographic silver backing sheet with small repeating rows of minimalist symbols of the moon's phases. It has a prism effect with a rainbow gradient. A screenshot of the OP's Notes app with a transcribed crochet pattern from the turn of the 20th century, for a shawl. The pattern text follows: FANCY SHAWL STITCH Columbia Yarns circa ~1905 (U.S. Terms) Make a chain the length desired. Editor's Note: Multiple of 5 + 3 ch. (Your tension affects the length of the finished piece significantly. I made a 14" test chain & worked 6 rows, resulting in a project length of 10.5"). Row 1—In 4th stitch of chain work 3 DC, *skip 2 stitches, in 3rd stitch work 3 DC, repeat from * to end of row, chain 3, turn. Row 2—Draw up a loop in each of the first 2 stitches of chain and in each of the first 3 DC of preceding row taking up the back loop, yarn over hook draw through all 6 loops, chain 1, *draw a loop through the eye, draw a loop through the back loop of preceding star, draw loop through each of the next 3 DC of preceding row taking up the back loop, yarn over, draw through all loops on hook, chain 1, repeat from * to end of row, chain 3, turn. Row 3—Work 3 DC in the eye of each star of preceding row, chain 3, turn. Repeat 2d and 3d rows for all the work.

the wildest part of regaining all your positive childhood memories after years of therapy is suddenly piecing together that you definitely learned martial arts in the 1990s from this gentleman's father

A screenshot of a Snapchat story with the black bar caption that reads: "Feel like pure shit just want her back x" The caption is laid over an extreme close-up of a KFC Double Down sandwich; a bunless chicken sandwich in which the "buns" are replaced with two breaded chicken breast patties, with two slices of melted white cheese securing a layer of bacon between both chicken patties. There is, of course, also a mysterious and tangy yellow sauce.

started a crunchyroll free trial bc partner & i were possessed to watch my most coveted childhood anime (yu-gi-oh!)

my lists are already out of control
A screenshot of the Crunchyroll mobile app, open to the "Crunchylists" tab of the OP's "My Lists" section. The six lists that have been created so far are titled: "damn, ok" "i GUESS" "lmao wait what" "ouch, right in the childhood" "they remade this?!" "timeless classics for eternal re-watching"

🦢 BuSpar™ 🌅
A scanned color image of a 1989 magazine advertisement for an anxiolytic pharmaceutical medication, "BuSpar". On the left side of the page is a sidebar that reads: "Her anxiolytic is working—but she's alert, functioning, and at no risk of a benzodiazepine withdrawal when therapy ends." To the right of the sidebar is a large photo of an elderly woman smiling, wearing a light pink collared blouse and light (for the 1980s) makeup. Large impact font below her smiling face reads: "That's Efficacy!" The body of the advert below reads: "BuSpar relieves anxiety and returns your patient to normal activity ...with no more sedation (10%) than induced by placebo (9%) ...without inducing significant cognitive or functional impairment ...without producing a benzodiazepine withdrawal syndrome upon discontinuation Effective choice for anxiety BuSpar(R) 5mg and 10mg (buspirone HCI) for a different kind of calm" There is a small photo of a swan floating in the ocean (it seems?), the sun setting majestically behind it.

truly incredible that reddit will always have that One Other Person whose faintest memories of a forgotten piece of childhood media echo your own and whose quest for info about it

has been left scrawled on these aging subreddit cave walls, just for you to find in your most dire time of need
A screenshot of a Google search in a mobile browser. The search field reads "2000s japanese anime openings cover album remixes". A screenshot of a snippet of a Reddit post in the r/anime subreddit. The post was made 4 years ago by user 'Cheesecakery' and the subject line reads: "Does anyone remember a series of anime techno remix albums from the early 2000s?" It is tagged with 'Discussion'. The clipped portion of the beginning of the post text reads: "I'm not great with music genres so they might have actually been eurobeat/EDM/etc. I bought three albums in 2006 as a kid because they had a cartoon girl on the cover, the. I was really confused when the—". Screenshot ends here.

Waiting for breakfast. Photo from my collection, 1961.
Black and white photo of a beautiful medium haired white cat standing on a chair with its forepaws up on a table, investigating a place setting. A full cup of coffee sits nearby but sadly the plate is empty.

My fascination w/ 19th-century ephemera has led me to save many Victorian (+ Edwardian) crochet patterns with the intention of eventually making the items, as a fun living history exercise.

I plan on putting them here once I've tested + transcribed them, and have my 1st one ready! #crochet 🧶📜
