I was gifted the pink set by a friend who picked it up with a clothing lot at an estate sale. She had no idea who made it or what the pattern name was. I liked the pattern so much that I searched many hours trying to find it (along with many other people who tried to help), but we all came up empty so I managed to work it out myself. It’s possible that this pattern exists out there somewhere so I do not claim ownership of it. Only of these written instructions. Feel free to make and sell as many projects as you would like, but please respect my hard work (and there was a LOT of work to get it just right) and do not sell my directions.
