LOT OF 5 KNITTING MAGAZINES = ROMANCE, LOTS OF SWEATERS, DRAGONS & 60s BABY WEAR

Description: This listing is for: Lot of 5 Knit & Crochet Pattern Magazines. They span from 1968 - 1989. There are 208 patterns in this listing and they are listed below with a few photos of each listing included in the photo section. They are in such great condition for their age. These are all from my mom's cherished collection. She kept them in such good condition. Most of them don't look like she ever used them. Some are just like when they were purchased or close to it. The conditions of each booklet will be detailed below. My Mom was so very talented and had a hard live. Cross Stitching, Knitting & Crocheting brought her soul peace and a true sense of accomplishment. I think that is the reason that she kept them in the best condition possible. Two years before she passed away, she asked me to make sure that they travel to all the 50 states because she never could. She simply didn't want them to get thrown out or sit idle. So, far her craft collection has hit 45 states and 640 cities. I have a goal to sell them all and keep her spirit alive with every sale to another crafty spirit.

SHIPPING TIME:My shipping promise is: 1 day handling time. I make post office drop offs at least twice a day unless of course I have no packages to drop off. Each order of mine will be dropped off the same day (even if the post office is closed: Our post office keeps half their lobby open 24/7 for PO Box access and access to package drop off drums) If the drop off drum is full and not accepting any more packages or the package is too large to fit in the drop off drum, we will attempt to drop off the package at the post office in the neighboring town. If that is full, we will then drop it off the next day. This rarely happens but if it does, I will let buyers know via eBay messaging. I treat every order as if it were my only and do NOT wait until I get another in order to make a trip to the post office. I will send each buyer an email confirmation when their package has been dropped off at the post office. If order is shipping from UPS and I receive the order to close to closing time of the UPS store, I will ship the next afternoon. They have specific hours and not as flexible as the post office. I only ship via UPS for very large or specific items. It will be listed as such in the listing. Only 2-3 of my listings ship via UPS, otherwise, they are NOT an option on my listings. COMBINED SHIPPING: If you want to buy more than one listing. Please let me know before purchasing and I will combine items in a new listing, so you can click on BUY IT NOW and have the accurate combined shipping and items in one listing. Thank you. SHIPPING METHOD / COST = USPS SHIPPING METHODS HAVE BEEN CHANGED - Do NOT change the method of shipping. Since I ship pattern books/booklets/magazine with a cardboard stiff in it and place DO NOT BEND stickers on the envelopes or packages. Since the service and price changes on July 9, 2023...I am no longer allowed to use First Class Mail and cannot use Media Mail. They thoroughly inspect medial mail in my area and most of my Mom's collection have ads and such in them which is against Media Mail guidelines. I can only ship this via USPS Ground Advantage or USPS Priority Mail. If you take it upon yourself do choose any other service, I will have to cancel order and re-list it with the correct shipping method. Contact me if you have any questions before you click BUY IT NOW and I will help you in any way I can. USPS will be strict on how the packages are being shipped from now on and return the package if not correct. Thank you for understanding. I ALWAYS pack items VERY carefully to make sure they arrive in the same condition. Shipping cost depends on weight & your zip code. My buyers WILL ALWAYS get exactly what the listing photos showed up for sale. Thanks for visiting my order! Seller Notes: S9
