Retro Knits: Cool Vintage Patterns for Men, Women, and Children from the 1900s through the 1970s

Retro Knits: Cool Vintage Patterns for Men, Women, and Children from the 1900s through the 1970s by Jean Lampe, Kari Cornell
2008 | ISBN: 076032977X | English | 160 pages | PDF | 19 MB

Everything old is new again in this collection of fun, hip knitting patterns dating from the early 1900s through the 1970s. Within the pages of this book youll find everything from the pattern for those classic embroidered mittens your grandmother knitted to the alluring mohair sweater your mother stitched during her college days.

Retro Knits collects 50 vintage patterns for items as stylish today as they were in their time. Organized by decade, these patterns have been culled from vintage pattern books published by yarn makers, and feature old photos, pattern book covers, and original instructions.

The patterns–for hats, mittens, socks, scarves, sweaters, vests, and shawls, all picked to exemplify the era of origin–also offer modern yarn and needle suggestions, new schematics, and updated sizing.
