Free Vintage Knitting Pattern Booklet – SunGlo Series 92 (circa 1947)
Hello lovelies!
A gorgeous reader named Anna was kind enough to share some whole scanned booklets from her mother’s collection for me to list here for you. I’ll be putting the other two up over the new few days.
The first one is Sun-Glo Series 92, dated to 1947 according to this advertisement on Trove.
All of the styles are to fit a 32-34 inch bust, with instructions for a 36 inch.
I especially like the sleeves on this one below
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)

Hi Bex,
thank you so much for sharing these lovely patterns. Could you help me with the choice of the yarn : what is a modern 2 ply yarns ? All the best from Paris 🙂 Alexandra

Hi there hon!
I find that modern fingering is a good match for the old yarns, you would probably get the exact gauge on standard fingering weight x

Hi Bex,
I’m planning on doing the 3298 pattern, what brand of wool would you recommend using for this pattern?
Thanks
Zoe

Sorry for the delay! Any fingering or light fingering wool with a twist (not crepe) construction will work x
