1960s Cowl Collar Sweater Vintage Knitting Pattern

This lovely 1960s sweater has a generous cowl collar and two front pockets, with that easy, relaxed shape that works so well with skirts or trousers. The main part is knitted in stocking stitch, with ribbing used for the welts, collar and pockets.

It was originally knitted in Lee Target Motoravia, a DK yarn. You’ll need around 20–22 oz (570–625 g), depending on the size you’re making.

There are three sizes to fit busts 28–30, 32–34 and 36–38 in (71–76, 81–86 and 91–97 cm).

You’ll need old UK No. 8, 9 and 10 needles (4 mm, 3.75 mm and 3.25 mm).

Tension is 6 stitches to 1 inch (2.5 cm) on No. 8 (4 mm) needles.
