When our great grandfather (3rd and 4th removed) founded Dexter Yarn Company in Pawtucket, RI in 1820, I wonder if he ever imagined that the premiere company that he founded would still be in his family for 107 years...until 1927?

The Dexter legacy was built on quality products, and later quality crochet pattern books that were romantic and feminine. The crochet patterns are for advanced crocheter's, as when these were first published between 1917-1920, the ladies of the era were highly skilled in the art of crochet work. These patterns are as useful today as they were yesterday, not to mention being very beautiful to look at. Roses, Cherubs, Fruit and Floral Motifs...You can recreate the beauty of yesterday to grace your home today, as well as your lingerie.
