1940s Knitting - A Fringed Sweater
Hello, it's been a while!
I have a few post lined up for you lovely people over the next couple of days so there is finally something going on on this little blog of mine, it was never my intention to leave it so long but with a massive life change towards the end of last year, it rather scuppered any plans I had to keep this blog going on a daily basis. That said things are a little calmer now in my world and so hopefully I will be able to be a bit more proactive around here, fingers crossed!
I've decided to start with a post from the lovely Bex over at Subversive Femme and another beauty from her collection. I have also been through all of Bex's previous posts that have been linked on here and updated the links as she now has a swishy new site and the old links were no longer connecting with the correct patterns, so I have done a bit of much overdue maintenance and relinked the posts to their respective patterns!
If you find a link on this site that is no longer working please just drop me an email to: [email protected] and I will see what I can do to remedy it!
Right, enough waffle from me, onto the free pattern!
