I'm a 64-year-old man and, surprisingly, I found this video both entertaining and informative. And you say that you sewed and knitted all those pieces by hand?! Incredible!
Edit: Hello and welcome everyone coming from Karolina's post - thank you for stopping by and I hope you enjoy! 😊I'm overwhelmed by the lovely response, thank you so much! I can finally wear my entire outfit all together! What do you all think? A few notes: - Lace-up shoes were available in the 1890s, and are likely also very popular, but I did find many examples of buttoned shoes as well! - I meant to say that 1890s corsets were split-busk! My corset has a busk, it just doesn't open at the front like most would have in 1890! (and I'm sure I made so many more mistakes - this is my first ever historical costume and I've learned so much already!!)
I’m just so glad you found a project you could work so hard and do so much research on! Karolina Żebrowska recommended this video to me, and I hope more and more people come see this video, because it’s so respectable to see someone make a historical garment (and for the first time!) like this. I hope you keep doing this in the future, I love seeing this stuff.
Yes, Karolina Żebrowska just posted the link. Hopefully many more of us will watch, comment, like & subscribe to show appreciation for your hours and hours of hard work. Is there a link for paterns in the description? I am interested making woolen ruffles, like your fascinator has.
Lovely! I imagine there were a couple of ladies who loved knitting as much as you do, and would have worn this many knit layers! They probably weren't common, as you mentioned, but they had to exist! :)
Directed here by Karolina. Beautiful work. Subscribed. I've been trying a mesh patterned 1940s vest. Pretty stitch of twisted rib on knit row and larger needle on purl. Lost at least 10 stitches over 10"/25cm of back piece pattern. The rib lines kept moving too. Turned it into a hot water bottle cover instead. Lol. That's why knitted stockings and combinations impress me. Lace I have to crochet to get right.
Lovely work! Our glorious Meme Mom Karolina Zebrowska highlighted your video today. I love discovering new creators so am very happy She did. I hope you are getting to enjoy your beautiful ensemble now that it is Wintertime.
This is a super pretty and impressive outfit! Ngl, I came here from Karolina's channel, but I'm super glad I found you! All the knitting is insane and beautiful!
1 year to sew/knit for 1 person only! How did women manage it, when they had an entire growing family to sew/knit for? No wonder people had only few garments, rather than today's FAST FASHION! I'm 68 and a sewer, the few garments I've managed to sew for myself, I love more than anything I buy! In fact I buy very few clothes..Knitting, crocheting are my upcoming hobby too! Mum sewed all our garmenst (4 of us in the 1960's)
I've been watching your videos for weeks now, originally looking for some knitting ideas and very quickly falling in love with vintage knitting. This is the first time I've watched you wear this whole ensemble, after seeing you slowly piece it together in previous videos. I know this about 2 years late but WOW it's so exciting to watch the final results of all your hard work. Mad respect!!
Honestly this just makes me appreciate the fabric, clothing, mending, and construction so much more. Watching you make these items just made me see clothing in a different light.
I never even thought of that! I'm going to be stepping into another time period for just a little while, but then I'm coming back to the 1890s for a few projects, I can't wait to share!
What a dream come true! Your ensemble is beautiful. I hope you wear it often. It's been great to follow along with you as your built this gorgeous outfit! I can't wait to see what's next! I am currently knitting a Spencer from 1919 and I look forward to a bit chiller days to wear it... but not yet. I do love the summer!
wow wow wow this is amazing. And such fine knitting. I just can't imaging having to have so many layers in those days. Incredible. your sewing and knitting are fantastic, congratulations.
So exciting to see the whole thing put together!! You did a terrific job on everything, and it has been fun to watch this all come together. Really lovely!
Yaaaay good for you! What an incredible project to have fully realised, it's SO impressive. I hope you are very proud of yourself - each piece is beautiful. Congratulations!
It all looks wonderful together! You should be very proud of yourself, especially since it includes some of your first sewn garments. I am looking forward to your future projects. Well done! 😊
Awesome, it looks great all together. I hope when it does get colder you'll be able to take some frosty, misty, atmospherically chillier photographs : ) Everythign looks amazing : )
@@catherinejustcatherine1778 Hi, You are a tease aren't you😊. Spring indeed... It's still very cold, even though I saw the first insect this year a couple of weeks ago. A butterfly, but it couldn't have survived the thirty degree night. It's still Winter here in the north. North as in Scandinavia, Europe, north. Even though you are indeed a tease😉😊 enjoy your spring/summer, I hope it's a lovely one. Yours, Ann
@@annlidslot8212 I was acknowledging that different locations have radically different weather. Our "spring" is extra hot this year, trying to be summer already. I try to hide in the shade, grateful that it isn't also humid, or snowing instead. Still, new plants dehydrate so quickly that I really should consider a "watering" system. I hope that your winter is not too uncomfortable
This is great! And a fantastic job for a beginner! I've been sewing 50 years and I don't know if I could have the patience. I have a real problem with start-itis. I binge watched this playlist last night. Love the videos!
Really enjoying your channel. The knits especially. With the improvement of modern outwear fabric its easy to lose sight of these cozy knitted undergarments and I'm glad your here to remind us.
I love it! The care and thought that went into each piece of this outfit... You've got quite a lot to be proud of here! Can't wait to see more historical knitting videos from you
Well i love every piece you ve made. I sure hope you so tutorials on how to knit the pieces? I hope. Lovely. Lovely outfit. I'm new to sewing too. 😍🙋🙋🙋
Your entire outfit looks lovely and beautiful on you! When the weather cooperates I hope you get to test the warmth factor. I love all the hand knit details also! Love the fasinator!
Congratulations on putting all your hard work and dedication together into such a beautiful outfit. You should be so proud, it looks outstanding! I love everything about it 💕
Karolina sent me here.
Was not disappointed :)
Same here
Sames 😩😭

Karolina was desperately searching for something to protect her ears. You show the answer. 🙏😍😅

Congratulations on such a triumph! The ensemble turned out amazing, and I'm excited to see what the next project will be!
Thank you! I'm so glad you appreciate the ensemble and can't wait to continue sharing projects!

Same
it looks so wonderful, you have inspired me to do historical knitting. wear that everyday for winter lml
Thank you, and it is so wonderful that you're inspired to do some historical knitting !
"It is also made in the most popular colour in the 1890s"
Buncha goths
😊💛💛xxx many thanks. Lovely!
Obviously “drink plenty of water” was not in place back then. 😂😂😂😂
I LOVE this outfit. Amazing achievement.
Wow, thank you so much, I am so happy you enjoyed it!
The combinations have an "escape hatch" - no need to avoid hydration. 😉
You just need good aim, or a funnel (probably a silicone one online somewhere ). Plus, perhaps some awesome personal wipes, for extra hygiene.
Wow! Wear that with pride! What a lot of work. Its looks great!
Amazing you finished it
A thoroughly interesting walk back in time. Thank you so much!
I bet you would be as snug as a bug in a rug in that outfit on a cold winter day 😀 I’ve really enjoyed watching this series.

It's very interesting as I can imagine my great grandmother getting dressed up in something like this.
Is it weird I’m getting emotional over this?
😊💕
I followed a link to your video, so pretty!
It's amazing to see this outfit complete! I love the little detail of saving the buttons from an old dress. I can't wait to see what you make next. 😊🌻
No wonder the gentry had 'dressers' . Imagine having to do that yourself every day, especially tying things at the back. Lovely video
Imagine being late for something and having to rush to get dressed 😂
I've been watching your videos for weeks now, originally looking for some knitting ideas and very quickly falling in love with vintage knitting.

I know this about 2 years late but WOW it's so exciting to watch the final results of all your hard work. Mad respect!!
I am so intimidated by knitting anything at all and here you are with all this gorgeous inspiration! I am now considering giving it a try!
I appreciate the craftsmanship on display here
Honestly this just makes me appreciate the fabric, clothing, mending, and construction so much more. Watching you make these items just made me see clothing in a different light.
I would love to see other season versions of this.
I never even thought of that! I'm going to be stepping into another time period for just a little while, but then I'm coming back to the 1890s for a few projects, I can't wait to share!
Immediately miss my family's old hurricane lamps 😭

A 1919 knit spencer sounds beautiful! thank you so much, I hope you'll enjoy some of my next projects!
Obviously one did not just throw something on and run out of the door! A stunning ensemble. A late 1800’s soirée Party is beckoning, 🎻
Wooow, I study History at University and I specialize on 1890-1939 and this is so inspiring! 😍 Thank you for your hard work!
Amazing work. It's gorgeous. I can't imagine how long women took to get ready in past with so many layers. 😅
This...is a MASTERPIECE! What a beautiful work of art. 👏Bravo 👏
Everything is absolutely beautiful! I really want to try to knit some of the accessories you made, like the fascinator and cape
wow wow wow this is amazing. And such fine knitting. I just can't imaging having to have so many layers in those days. Incredible. your sewing and knitting are fantastic, congratulations.
I find this info helpful for my family's lifestyle. We duplicate some of these things to stay warm on our hobby farm.
So exciting to see the whole thing put together!! You did a terrific job on everything, and it has been fun to watch this all come together. Really lovely!
Thank you so much! I'm so glad you enjoyed it!
I love that even though you don't have all the perfect things you make it work (like historical women would've)
Great job, and just in time for the coming cold weather. Its been fun seeing this go together.
Wonderful wonderful job!!
Thank you so much 😀
You've done such a great job! :) Thanks for parading around even in the heat! I'm excited to see more projects from you.
Thank you! 😊
Amazing work! I’ve been watching the other videos and it’s so exciting to see it all come together!
The level of your skill is astounding. Thanks for a charming video!
Stunning!
Lovely!!!
Lovely!
Yaaaay good for you! What an incredible project to have fully realised, it's SO impressive. I hope you are very proud of yourself - each piece is beautiful. Congratulations!
Wow getting dressed in ye olden times were so annoyingly long process. Incredible work!
That is a beautiful ensemble!
It all looks wonderful together! You should be very proud of yourself, especially since it includes some of your first sewn garments. I am looking forward to your future projects. Well done! 😊
It is absolutely amazing to see the culmination of all your work. Everything is so stunning!
Wow it’s beautiful on you. Thank you! I’ve never seen this style before. Nice history fashion lesson as well. 😊
Awesome, it looks great all together. I hope when it does get colder you'll be able to take some frosty, misty, atmospherically chillier photographs : )
Everythign looks amazing : )
I am so glad you enjoy it - and I also can't wait to wear it in more appropriate weather!

Did you? Will you please? (Its spring already here, on the other coast, only wintery in the mornings. )

Thank you for sharing your joy with us. Very informative and quite a learning experience.
You look lovely!! It is a very big accomplishment to have hand made all those items! You can and should be very proud.
You put an incredible amount of work into this and it certainly shows. Bravo!

Beautiful😊
Congratulations! the result is beautiful and one can tell how much time, care and love you've put into each piece. It is trully a remarkable work!
This is great! And a fantastic job for a beginner! I've been sewing 50 years and I don't know if I could have the patience. I have a real problem with start-itis. I binge watched this playlist last night. Love the videos!
Beautiful
Lovely outfit! I had never heard of the miser’s purse! Great video!
This is so cute!
It is beautiful!!!
That's great...so much craftsmanship. Looks beautiful but like so much work to get dressed smh it's a wonder people went out in wintertime lol
This is a stellar ensemble. You did an amazing job sewing and knitting these beauties. Wow!!!
I can't wait for your next projects. 💞💕
Me too!! I'm going to be stepping into another time period for a bit, but then I'm back to the 1890s for a while!
Ooooh, it's so beautiful! 😮 I love the color combination on the ensemble. And I think the purse is very charming. ☺️
Stunning work...Thank you so much for sharing the history of the garments and your excellent work. I feel as though I have stepped back in time.
Really enjoying your channel. The knits especially. With the improvement of modern outwear fabric its easy to lose sight of these cozy knitted undergarments and I'm glad your here to remind us.
I'm so glad you're enjoying it, it has been so fun!
Absolutely incredible work
I must say it does look quite cozy!
Love it! Also can't wait to see some 1920s knit projects!
Amazing! thanks so much.
