If Retro Claude is still doing her stash busting serie, you should send her this pattern since it is eating so much yarn. It's beautiful!😊

Hi! what fun, thank you for the shout out , great shawl!!

What a blast! Maybe I could do this with my Danish grandmother's patterns. They are written in Danish and would be a mystery as I knit!

This is so much fun. The idea of the mystery make is pretty cool. The topper though is having Nutella do the drawing. Absolutely hilarious!

Oh my goodness! I'm so glad you've told people about Just Vintage Crochet! Corrine is such a trooper for trying to figure those patterns out, and her videos are so fun. That blue really makes your eyes pop! That is such a cute pattern. I imagine the full garment would be very warm.

Even though it takes so much yarn, it looks really soft and warm. Mystery patterns are a good idea.

I'm obsessed with this mystery antique pattern trend !

I wonder if you could send scans to a friend to alter and send back to you without the identifying bits?

Now I'm curious to see what it would have looked like if you did leave the yarn loops as one long loop per stitch... If made with silk yarn I think it could have looked quite glamorous and fringey! :D It's going to be a really beautiful cape though!

Actually, the 2 pieces plus the collar as is would make a very cool accent to a fabric capelet.

Everyone likes a good mystery! Hats off to Corinna and her mystery crochet idea - golden!

Since you mentioned it looked at some point like a bag, I imagined those loops with sead beads, how cool would that look!

Your videos are always interesting and your vintage knitting always takes me back on my 70 year knitting journey. This particular knit was revealed to me from the first decrease. It was one of those patterns that one person would find in a book and teach to every other knitter in their circle, well into the third quarter of the last century, when modern pattern books became available even in the remotest places. So here I am, using a pair of my vintage needle and yarn from my enormous stash, knitting this cape for next winter’s Netflix and Chilly nights., in a stitch pattern that my aunt taught me in the 1950s. A few observations: you have proved that so-called continental knitting, which is not used in most of the European continent, can be totally useless in certain situations. You can be forgiven for using it because of your German origins 😊. However, you have proved here that you are a true knitter and can do whatever is necessary to get the results you need. Kudos. There are different methods of doing the loop stitch that secures the loops as you knit each stitch, but you managed quite well with the standard way. Two observations about those old pattern terms: knitting plain means working all knit stitches. Purl is always instructed explicitly. Knit even means knit in pattern without increasing or decreasing. Keep up the good work.

Looks like a blue poodle 😂 love it.

This makes me feel so old. I used this pattern to make bonnets and mitts and jackets for my babies. This was in the 60s so I suppose I am classed as vintage. 🙁🥹😀😄😂. Thanks for the memories. X

I’ve been watching just vintage crochet and she is awesome. So I loved this and can’t wait to see what else comes off your needles xxx

Yes, Nutella you are such a good dog to help your mom make her youtube content even better. 🥰

Even partially finished that cape really suits you.

This was so fun🥰 I would love to watch more of these mystery knitt patterns🥰.

Definitely one for Retro Claude and her stash busting! 😂 if it was in a black yarn with a sheen I think it would look a little like astrakhan possibly? Love the colour you're using though.

Love that Nutella is picking!

For a while, I thought the pattern was going to be for a crazy halter top from the 1970's! 🤣 It so easily could have been, given the shape! I'm glad it was a more tasteful item! What a fun video!

i immidiatly thought of her when i saw the title, great of you to reconise the inspiration and ihonestly thought i was one of the only oes to be recommended her

I love this idea of mystery knitting. And the looped cape is so, so cute! I want to make one now. Please record a reveal of your full 1840's outfit. It's going to be beautiful!

The look of this cape is fabulous and I can’t help thinking I’ve seen a vintage photo somewhere of someone wearing something like it but I would never knit one for myself because I’d be constantly worried about snagging the loops. Great job, though! I can’t wait to see the finished product!😊

I collect vintage knitting books and patterns. And one I got from the 80s look like one you'd probably want to make. I wish I could email you a picture of the cover so you can search for it. (The sweater on the cover is the one I think you'll be interested in making)

Nutella preformed beautifully. So talented! Oh great fun human video also!

This was so fun to watch! I think the cape will be so beautiful in the end when it’s finished. But I admit when you got the loops first done I definitely did not see a cape in its future 😂

This was so entertaining! I wish I could help you to make it a surprise for you too. Maybe your patrons could censor some patterns. I don't know. This was a great idea though and I would watch many more of this type!

How fun! I do watch @justvintagecrochet also. I think that the looped knit as the front panels & collar of a wool cape would be cute.

Cookie (Monster) Cape! If it were me, I'd use the loopy panels where you have them,in the front, and knit up the other panels in the same shape without loops

It was such an adventure because I have never knit this stitch before and also I had no idea what a Cap is until the final reveal! Thank you for making vintage knitting such an adventure, I hope you continue ❤️😊❤

This is so fun! I am getting better at reading older knitting patterns and love seeing your process of thinking when reading them.

Loving the idea of not knowing what you are knitting. I made a cardigan for my daughter in the 1970s with a pattern just like this. She was approx 6 years and loved her cardi. x

It looks wonderful! 😃 And it must be quite warm due to the amount of yarn 😄

That was so much fun. I'm sure you can find others to play the mystery game. If everyone takes a turn picking the pattern it would be fun for all! The came will be beautiful when done!

What a stunning pattern. The finished cape will be fabulous and so warm

I love how you included Nutella in your randomization. :)

I've watched those vintage crochet videos, they're fantastic and it's incredible the beautiful pieces she is able to make!

This is so cool! I love the texture of the cape. Now I want to figure out how to incorporate loop knitting into my own stuff. It's so cool. I'd love to see more mystery knits. My sister and I were guessing along with you as you knit and were happily correct about it being a cape. 😊

Yes I think you are competent enough to decipher the patterns,it is fun to watch you

For the mystery knits, you could have viewers send you patterns that they have 'redacted' and the key. That way you will not know what the pattern could be. That sounds like it would be fun to do. I want to go find you a pattern now. You could also set parameters on amount of yarn it requires.

It's so beautiful and interesting! And it goes so well with the blue set you had underneath 😎 The idea of mystery patterns is quite fun😊

I now have a goal of knitting a squishy cape!

This was fun, I have had the crochet pop up on my feed to.

This was a lot of fun! I love the fuzzy texture of the cape, I feel like this woulf makes some great imitation furr too

Thank you for giving Just Vintage Crochet a shout out. I hope that the two of you become friends

Havent watched this to the end yet lol but this was a very popular stitch pattern for baby bonnets in the early 70s

Looking at the first half of this, I'm thinking "ok, so this is how to knit terrycloth?" Can you imagine this made with something lofty like angora?

absolutely loved this! i've been watching just vintage crochet's videos, and it's as fun every time! :)

So fuzzy! Great mock up - it's pretty enough with the smooth white that you could do garter such panels instead and it would look good 😊😊

Yes Corinna is fun, what a concept

It would make a lovely scarf. Love the loops.

It’s so gorgeous!!! I can’t believe how gorgeous it is!!!

That was so fun!

I've seen a lot of people saying Knit Plain means to knit without increasing or decreasing in stockinette stitch or if working in the round, just knitting every stitch around for however long the pattern says in rows or to build up fabric of a certain length. Although in this case it seems to mean to knit every row. It's hard to know without the context lmao but so incredibly interesting & fun to watch! 🤩🥰

This looks AMAZING!!!!!!

What a fun project! I do love the quirks of those antique patterns!

Amazing! Thank you for sharing.

That must be incredibly warm with all that loft! And a single row of those loops would make a cute stand-up collar.

Just wow!

That has to be so warm! Now I want one. ❤❤

Adorable and fun!

Amazing. Well done.

Obsessed!!! Please I need more!!!!

Love this pattern. ❤

Love tbe video! Please do more!

"Loopy fabric" hehe 😂

Nutella picking was so precious! My cat would just try to gobble them all at once 😸

What fun!!! Wow, that's alot of yarn! Have fun!!

I've only heard of "Master Knitters". I've never witnessed one in action! You amaze me with every video. Thank you for the hard work of filming your process, i so enjoy watching a master at work. Much love and many blessings, Dear.

I enjoyed the mystery knit episode and would love to see more!

Very interesting. Thanks

Love the mystery knit!

I love this! The mystery is super fun, more please!

Gasp! That's going to be so great!

I love her videos and you doing it as well! I can’t wait to see how this comes out.

Fascinating with your detective analysis!

What a pretty capelet!! Loved allowing Nutella do the drawing! Please continue for further mysteries.

That will be really warm!

Pick a easyier one, so it doesn't eat all the yarn, but o love the mystery pattern, I watch Corrina all the time , as well as you too, both great❤

It is adorable I love the mystery series

From illustrations in Godey's and Peterson's Lady's Magazines, Berlin work was what we call needlepoint, so I assume that Berlin wool is the yarn we'd use for that, if you want a size reference. Please consider posting the year of the project up front. Thanks for this; what's not to love about the mystery projects..

Enjoyed this so much. Would love to see more.

this is so fun! I loved the part of you working out the stitch pattern from the instructions!

I love this idea. I'd love to see more

That's going to be gorgeous!!! It will be so warm, too. I'm looking forward to seeing more mystery knits!

I love the concept of a mystery knit! I would absolutely love to see more (and I also feel inspired to try this myself now!)

😮 wow that capelet will be beautiful when done

I watch the mystery chroshet too and yours are just as interesting love the guessing game

The cape is wonderful, I love these mystery patterns. They get my creative juices flowing.

I’ve been watching Just Vintage Crochet. I’m so glad to see the same idea in knitting!! So much fun!

omg, what an awesome cape!! i love that color. what fun!!

Love the yarn colour and the fluffiness of this collar. ❤

Wow! The result is gorgeous and so beautiful!❤

Please more mystery knits!

I love this idea! And that looped knitting looked fun yet also a little awkward to do - well done!

Nice! I neither knit or crochet (I sew) 😊 but I follow you and others in this yarn community. 👍🏽

Omg the finished cape is gonna look incredible

I watch Just Vintage Crochet and love her mysteries. I am a knitter so I would enjoy seeing you do this too. I've knit from 19th century patterns and have made a mess of them, so hope you have better luck, they're so cryptic.
