Bestway Sleeveless Pullover	BESTWAY SLEEVELESS PULLOVER I love this little jumper … sadly too small for me, the instructions are for 34″ bust, although there’s nothing to stop you from sizing it up. Classic 1940s sleeveless pullover in ‘a charming diamond pattern’. The diamond stitch is ‘easily worked and most effective’. Original wool used: 6oz Lister’s Lavenda 3-ply, No.10 knitting needles and 1 set of four No.13 knitting needles. Download the .pdf for the Bestway Sleeveless Pullover
Lee Target Cardigan	LEE TARGET CARDIGAN Elegant 1950s lady’s cardigan, the sleeves are unusually knitted all in one as part of the body. Great range of sizes too: 32″-34″/36″-38″/40″-42″ Originally worked using 14/16/18oz Motoravia DK Download the .pdf for the Lee Target Lady’s Cardigan
Munrospun Striped Jersey	MUNROSPUN STRIPED DOLMAN JERSEY A classic early 1950s striped jumper with dolman sleeves knitted in one as part of the body.

Afternoon Style Jumper	AFTERNOON STYLE JUMPER Lovely jumper in 3 sizes with striped waistband (hiding cunningly concealed pockets) and sleeve welts. From a 1956 Stitchcraft pull-out.

Miss Marple Scarf	MISS MARPLE SCARF Skiff’s interpretation of a classic, the so-called Miss Marple scarf came about through an email from an eagle-eyed Miss Marple viewer who’d spotted the scarf during an episode and wanted the pattern. Skiff obliged and made one up, only to later find it already out there on the web! The Skiff version used UK Alpaca, a lovely soft DK. Download the .pdf for Skiff’s Miss Marple Vintage Scarf
Skiff's 1930s Swagger Scarf	SKIFF’S 1930s SWAGGER SCARF Another garter stitch scarf, another Skiff interpretation of a vintage classic … this one was originallly a 1930s P&B pattern leaflet for which I found the advertisement but not the pattern. So I made it up …The Skiff version used Jamieson & Smith 2-ply Jumper Weight. Download the .pdf for Skiff’s 1930′s Swagger Scarf
