These crochet patterns are the Designs of Alice Brooks, Laura Wheeler, Anne Cabot, and others.  These patterns were marketed as newspaper advertisements, or in catalogs between 1933 and 1987.   Readers would send payment and receive the pattern in the mail.  Even though there are over 3200 crochet patterns in this section, it represents just a fraction of those marketed.   Categories are set up to make your browsing easier.
