Blackwater Vintage Knits - Vintage Knitting Patterns, Hand-Knits and Hand-Dyed Yarn

You will receive a printed A4 copy of the pattern which has been enlarged and digitally restored to remove creasemarks, stains and other marks of age. You will not receive the original pattern nor the knitted item. The pattern will be printed double sided with a light water mark and sent in a plastic wallet and hard-backed envelope. 

This is a very pretty sweater with striped welt and yoke (to use up your oddments in true 'Make Do and Mend' style). The flowers are embroidered on afterwards. This could be left plain for a simpler sweater. The original is knitted in white with red, green and black stripes.

This pattern includes diagrams for the flower embroidery
