Five different crocheted "trimmings" from the October 1918 Needlecraft magazine.  If right-clicking on this image does not enlarge the text to usable size, the entire magazine is online at the Antique Pattern Library.

    Did you notice the "conservative" recipes for cakes and breads on page 14? Lots of saved crumbs and rye flour in them. Rationing? There's always so much in these old magazines.

    Some of the recipes leave...something to be desired.

    When I click on the link, I get an error message "Nothing to see here". Could you post the direct link? Thanks!

    Yes. I've had the good luck to not have eaten anything remotely like those 'cakes and breads' - yet. They'd make a good addition to a survivalist's cookbook, though.
