Faux 40’s Sweater

I popped into my favorite faux vintage store today, Forever 21, and came across a gem – a cable knit sweater that looks straight out of the late 30’s/early 40’s! The medium looked about like this on me – okay, but a little slouchy, so I sized down to a small to get the cute short sweater look. In person it’s a nice deep blue-red – the only shade of red I can even attempt to wear next to my face!

 

What do you think – could it be out of this knitting book?

    Love that sweater! I often wonder if the folks behind Forever 21 are scouring vintage catalogs/knitting manuals to get "new" ideas for clothes! 😉
