KNITTED: “Smokin” ! Rock the sixties ’continental’ look with a knit suit that epitomises this elegant early 60s. It is modelled with a good deal of “cold war” femme fatal panache (and somewhat bizarrely) on a District line train!
The slim pencil skirt and collarless, round necked cardigan style were so popular and they remain very wearable now.
This is an easy knit; the technical gingham/hound’s-tooth pattern is done with a simple with a slip stitch technique and finished in simple rib edging.
Enjoy; it’s worth looking just for that fab photograph! All those elegant ladies off somewhere unknown...
