Curvy Month Pattern – Fair-Isle Twin Set, c. late1940s
Posted on
July 7, 2012
Isnt this twin set from Marriners 162 so very cute?
I believe its probably very late 1940s, or even early 1950s due to the size and colouring of the booklet. I love the unusual white leaf shapes across the yoke – not to mention gray and red being one of my favourite colour combinations.
Edit – here’s what it looks like knitted up!
The cardigan has the patterned yoke knitted on afterwards, while the jumper is just normal fair-isle.
In four sizes, to fit 34-40 inches.

Thanks for the pattern, having trouble reading it I suppose it’s because of the printing and a old pattern . I thought it may have had a graph with it wishful thinking on my behalf ? I’ve been knitting for 70years no my mother didn’t teach me we were taught at school in the second grade and I wish they still did in schools here in Australia ?? as it’s good for the brain

do you by chance have page 4 still? I started working on the cardigan and got to the end of page 3, only to realize the next step is missing. Thank you in advance!

disregard this, just out of order and I apparently didn’t have enough coffee
