THE MAGIC SPOOL

~For making things to dress up dolly

Or animals in shapes so jolly

Just use this trusty magic spool

For fun at play it is a jewel~



.......and so it says on the lid of
"The Magic Spool" set!

The Magic Spool - T. Buettner & Co. Inc. Chicago -
U.S.A. - copyright 1941

T. Buettner & Co. was an art needlework supply
company in Chicago. The earliest catalog
that I have found from this company is dated 1906.
If any reader has any information on T. Buettner
& Co. Inc., I would love to hear from you, thankyou!


Below is the box lid.

The instructions found in the box.
(I have two of these sets and the other
set was missing this sheet.)


Inside the two sets (side by side) - as found, with the
original spool knitters and others
added.

The red wooden spool knitter measures 3 1/2 inches or 9 cms.
