Sleeveless jumper design from Stitchcraft, July 1963.

Made with 7/8/8 ounces Patons Cameo Crepe (White and Marine Blue 252) to fit 33-34/35-36/37-38 inch bust. Length from top of shoulders, 21.5/21.5/22 inches. Tension, 29 sts and 37 rows in 4 inches.

The pattern is written out and the garment is intended to be made from the bottom up in pieces (back, front, collar) and seamed. There is a stocking-stitch hem at the bottom edge. The collar is knitted in double thickness of stocking stitch with a purl-row fold line and then sewn on. The diamond accents are intarsia using smalls balls of wool or bobbins.
