A relaxed 1940s sweater with that distinctive late-forties silhouette, featuring softly structured
shoulders and a clean, easy fit. The design is worked in stocking stitch, with diagonal panels
across the yoke that are embroidered in a contrasting colour after knitting, adding subtle
detail without complicating the construction.
Originally made in a fine sock or sweater yarn, this pattern translates well to modern 3 or
4 ply, giving you flexibility with yarn choices. Knitted on US size 2 and 3 needles, it creates
a lightweight fabric that works across seasons.
Sized for a 32–38 inch bust, it’s a straightforward project that results in a wearable vintage
piece you can easily style with both classic and contemporary outfits.
