The original version was published in 1964 as Fern Diamond Cardigan, with Texet Orchid Nylon yarn. Vogue revised the pattern in 1983 for More Knitting In Vogue and Knitting in Vogue Number 2 and included an additional larger size, with yarn 3 Suisses Suizy DK. Both suggested yarns have since been discontinued.
