Posted on
July 17, 2024
I’m always so excited to share patterns in sizes greater than 44″ – they really are the unicorns, but they’re definitely out there! Doreen is late 1940s, maybe early 1950s and features a really interesting arrowstitch lace pattern.

I love a big girl cardi pattern. And especially when they are V necks which fit so much more nicely over shirts/shirtwaist dresses.
Thank you and well done on your archaeology.
