1940s Women’s Mock Cable Cardigan Blouse Knitting Pattern – Bust 35

This early 1940s cardigan blouse has a neat fitted shape, slim sleeves and a small shawl-style collar. The mock cable pattern adds texture to the design without overwhelming the simple 1940s silhouette.

Designed to fit a 35 inch (89 cm) bust, the original pattern is worked in 3-ply yarn using old UK No. 9 (3.75 mm) and No. 12 (2.75 mm) knitting needles.

A modern 4-ply yarn may also be suitable, but as vintage and modern yarns can differ, always check your tension and adjust the needle size if necessary before beginning.
