Kids, when you plan to publish something online on a semi-weekly basis, don’t depend on your neighbor’s internet connection. Sigh. In any event, here’s a lovely vintage jumper that would look fine knitted as-is, or could be lengthened for the ‘tunic and tights’ look so popular of late. What with guys’ pants ever-increasing in snugness and women giving up pretensions and wearing straight-up leggings as the bottom half of their wardrobe, I predict it will be a short step to the return of the codpiece and medieval-style tunics. Get a jump this holiday season and knit in some intarsia heraldry on a field vert!
Somewhere a paper preservationist is weeping at my hacky Photoshop skills.

Hi!
In love with your free vintage patterns, as I collect them myself, and have several books and publications!
However, I do not have this little lovely pattern.
But I can’t read it on my browser! Could you provide a link to the original?
I completely understand if you can’t!Thanks so very much for your time and effort!

Hi Linda,
I’m a bit confused by your request to provide a link to the original. The image above isthe original, from photographs, that I hobbled together in Photoshop. I have a narrow-column site layout; it’s been helpful to others to right click and ‘save as’ the images to their desktop, where they’ll open up to their full size instead of being limited by the constraints of my website. Hope that helps.

This is a lovely pattern. If it helps, I selected and dragged the images to the desk top on my mac. Then I opened the images in preview and was able to print successfully.
Thank you for finding this little gem.
