1940's Knitting - Men's Fair Isle Pullover

Stitchcraft 1947 Men's Fair Isle Pullover

Kindly reproduced by the picture perfect Tickety Boo Tupney

If proof were needed that good style never goes out of fashion, then this Fair Isle Pullover pattern is certainly that! Thanks to Tupney's super sleuthing we know this pattern has been quite a popular over the years. Originally from the 40's, reprinted in the 70's and now has been copied by Ralph Lauren for his latest 2012 collection!

I do not make any money from this site, it is my love of vintage patterns that keeps me posting.

If you feel that any of the patterns posted here infringe copyright then I will of course take down all links to them immediately.

I would also kindly ask you to please respect the wonderful people who have uploaded the free patterns shared on this site, by not selling theses digital patterns for your own profit. Thank you!

Unless otherwise stated (by the garment designer) of the free pattern, I can see no reason that would stop you from selling anything you have actually made from a free pattern listed here, just check with the original source first!
