Long Time, No Patterns

Posted on January 22, 2010March 23, 2010 by Michele

Hi All,

As you may or may not know, along with all of the other things I am trying to juggle right now, I have a free pattern and project website/blog called The Crafty Tipster. It has a variety of free craft, crochet, embroidery and vintage knitting projects and patterns. Unfortunately, it’s been quite some time since I’ve added anything new to it.


If anyone’s interested, I just posted this really stylin’ vintage sweater pattern.

This pattern, like so many from the time does not include much information about swatching or sizing but there is a small clue in one of the instructions – it mentions casting on 119 stitches which will make up the 24 inch-wide back of the sweater.

It does require multiple size knitting needles but otherwise to this non-knitter it looks fairly straightforward to make.

If anyone does give it a go, please post your comments so that others may have your insight into how hard or easy this Vintage Sweater Coat Pattern is to make. Also, I would love to include a picture of you or the lucky someone you make this sweater for.

This article is a bit old, but you can learn more about becoming a Crafty Tipster and how your participation in the site can garner free advertising for your crafting-related website.

Blog About Crafts

Back in 2006, when this site was launched, there was a gal who loved to help other artists and crafters build their business. She had several websites, including this one, dedicated to that endeavor. She helped them fly, while she only dabbled. Finally, she has joined them in pursuing her own artistic endeavors which can be found at Michele Tway Mixed Media & Fiber Art.
