This listing is for a PDF digital download for a women's vintage knitting pattern taken from the pattern book 'Sun Glo Knitting Book 135'. The book this pattern is taken from appears to be c. 1940s, and the pattern is for a jumper with either long or short sleeved options, small stripes throughout except for a yoke on the front bodice in the main colour, with ribbing around the neckline, sleeves and body. The example has the main colours listed as white and green. I love the idea of this sweater being used to make use of some scrap yarn, and having alternating coloured stripes.
This pattern fits a 32-34 inch bust, with instructions to size up to a 36 inch bust by using UK 8/4mm needles instead of UK 9/3.75mm needles.
Materials required for the jumper:
- 5-7 skeins 'Kooba' fingering wool, or substitute to achieve 6 x 8 rows for 1 x 1 inch.
- Knitting needles UK 9/3.75mm
- Knitting needles UK12/2.75mm
- 1 press stud
- 4 small buttons
- Crochet hook
