Some white #crochet from our Festival ...
Does anybody know how this "wavy" technique (photo 3/4) was called/made:
edit: Image search showed me "Victorian hexagons". I found originals from the 1920/50s but it may be much older.
On Ravelry I found modernized patterns with "popcorns": https://www.ravelry.com/patterns/library/marguerite-bedspread-6132

I had promised you more #grannies from our Festival of #Wool & #Yarn. The square-bags were new, but I suspect the horrible shades of orange and brown are original 1970s. 🤭
We had a big hype with grannies in the 1960/70s, first with colourful fancy #hippie #fashion, then in the typical colours of rubbish bins (in the early 1970s, everything had that dirty orange: bins, coffee-machines, skirts, wall-papers). @fiberarts
