Free Vintage Knitting Pattern Booklet – Busy Fingers Vol 1, c. 1950s

Here’s Anna’s second booklet, Busy Fingers Vol 1. Unfortunately I haven’t been able to date this one but it’s definitely in the 1950s sometime.

The booklet is full of fun little things, such as hats, gloves, lace and jumpers.

I really love this amazing lace shawl – it has a sleeve on one end! Crazy!

I hope you enjoy these patterns (and Anna’s hard work), and the complete booklet is available as a PDF here at this link.
(please note I have put a light watermark on them, only to stop people re-selling Anna’s copies)
