Influenced by a design from 1954, Mame consists of only two pieces and features brief sleeves and a classic fitted turtle neck, perfect for wearing with your capris or pencil skirts.

Rewritten and revitalized, Mame includes updated yarn requirements, modern instructions and a larger size range for knitters who love authentic vintage styling.

This original fit of this design was intended to provide zero to two inches of positive ease (5cm), however up to two inches of negative ease can be used for a bombshell fit. Model wears size 40 with negative 1 inch of ease.
