A Honest Conversation About Historical Authenticity: My Edwardian Shawl

In this video, I'm having an honest conversation about historical authenticity. I'm sharing the story of my Edwardian shawl, and discussing the goals I have for the project. I want to make a shawl that is authentic to the period in the pattern I used and crochet techniques. But rather than purely reproducing a historical piece I wanted my shawl to reflect the modern era that I live in. Truly great design is in fact timeless, and that is what I see when I look at this Edwardian shawl pattern.

If you're also interested in deeper conversations about historical authenticity, then you'll want to watch this video! We'll talk about the goals of historically inspired projects and the need to define what what your goal is for the project as you're working on it. I hope you enjoy the video, and I look forward to hearing your thoughts and comments!
