Wind Breaker 2726, Sun Glo (circa WWII)
Just look at this illustration!
I love the pants, the jumper, the hair scarf! Perfect.
This design is from one of my favourite war-time knitting books, Sun Glo 62. There’s even at little blurb about serving Australia in the front. Enjoy!

Such a marvelous illustration, I can certainly see why this is one of your favourite looks. I've been yearning for vintage trousers like that for ages now, but just haven't come across the right pair (that works on my petite frame). Illustrations like this are great to add to the inspiration pile though, thank you!
Big hugs & joyful Tuesday wishes,

it’s a beautifull image. have you knitted this ? i was just wondering what wool to use?
as it dose not say 3ply or 4ply on the pattern ?

Hi there!
I’d suggest going by the gauge and the needle size, which would put the yarn around a heavy worsted weight (4.5 sts per inch)
Hope that helps!
