Product Description
This sweet sweater is already considered a vintage classic. Originally published in the 1940s by Patons, it was knitted in flat pieces which were then sewn together. It uses a simple lace chevron pattern worked in horizontal stripes over the lower body with a moss (seed) stitch upper yoke and sleeve heads. The sleeve stripes are deliberately narrower than the body.
Susan is shown wearing the 4th size to fit 40-42 inch chest, medium length, with the lower body knitted in the round.
The updated version of the pattern includes instructions both for knitting in the round or flat as well as three lower body length options. The upper yoke and sleeve heads are worked flat in moss stitch for both versions.
The sample is knitted in Susan Crawford Vintage Excelana North fingering weight.
Chevron comes in 8 sizes to fit from 71–152 cm (28–60 in) chest and with both written and charted to work from plus a clear schematic diagram and sizing charts.
