Curvy Month 8: Ribbing is Slimming, c. 1940s

Ribbing is certainly slimming, and you can tell this pattern was well loved by the original owner’s notes all over it. It looks like the original owner extended the ribbing all the way up the front, but I personally like the plain effect in the middle.

I also like the pockets, and it comes with knitted shoulder pads as well.
