Oldies but goodies...


For ages I've been collecting old knitting patterns and dithering about which one I should try first. It's a little tricky finding the right wool for the patterns.

But I've finally settled one something. Here's the pattern book circa 1930's.

I'm knitting it in Bendigo Woollen Mills 3 ply - Raspberry. I've knitted quite loosely to get the sizing right as the 3 ply is probably a little too fine for the pattern. But I'm expecting it to look ok, and maybe even fit! - after it's blocked.
