A CROCHET pattern
A vintage crochet PDF pattern for a neat little sixties mod suit.
Very simple, worked in basic double crochet (USA single crochet) but with textured yarn and dainty finishing picot details to lift it out of the ordinary.
Feminine, sixties style sexy, daywear-neat but much more comfortable than a tight structured suit!
It is made in a textured yarn- you may need to experiment, but a slub texture of fine boucle would be best. Use a cotton mix for summer-or go woollier for winter-this would work all year ‘round. How about with a faux fur trim for the festive season?
This is actually a later rework of their earlier pattern to fit in with the rapid fashion changes about then-see my 282 for the looser, early sixties “mad men” version.
Some other similar patterns are 273, 298 and more casual 159 and 162.
