I adore both vintage craft patterns and vintage cookery books. You really can learn a lot, or at least laugh a lot at previous generations! This gem caught my eye at Spitalfields yesterday. I couldn't resist it as it really could be Graeme and myself in another age and with more hair."How do you like your new 'zipper' darling. Made with the revolutionary 3 play Ariel - the only yarn which 'gives you bulk without weight!"
"It's great darling (although I wish she'd told me that before I joined the gym) - is this why we're sharing this celebratory bottle of coke?"
"Yes - that and my new found ability to blow bubbles out of the top of my head!"
Wonderful - perhaps this calls for a bottle each?"
Who knows - perhaps this was how Ariel soap powder was invented?
I think this pattern's pretty nice if you want to go for the retro look - perhaps with a bit of a pattern to snazz it up. Now where can I get some of that 'Ariel'?
