1970’s Fair Isle Yoke Sweater- Sirdar 5308

Link to PDF here

Year/ Decade 1970’s – It’s after 1972 as the price is in decimal currency, still not from the 80s as half-pence were still in use.

Size – 34, 36 or 38 inch bust

Yarn Size – DK also known as double knitting

Source – Charity shop. I love that someone has hole punched this and kept it in a folder

Surprise Element – a back zip or you can just sew it up at the back. Perhaps so as not to crush the larger hair-do?

    I think the link is incorrect. It goes to a very nice cardigan – Copley’s 907 but it’s not the lovely Fair Isle Jumper.

      Thank you for letting me know. I’ve fixed it, but just in case it’s also here – https://drive.google.com/file/d/1h8gHZDQMRdeXRMJEy7LzPcDtp07Tn7TL/view?usp=drivesdk

        Thank you very much. I’ve been following you for a long time and love the patterns you post. I have saved both the jumper and the cardigan. They are now on my Projects To Do list, which is getting longer and longer every time you post a pattern 😁
