From the book: “Inspired by the wonderful knitting patterns of the 1950s, this zipper cardigan is always popular. Worked in two colors in chunky wool, it takes no time at all to make. With its Scandinavian-style reindeer and tree motifs, this style looks good in black and ecru. It has two integral pockets, a zipper fastener and a retro-style garter stitch collar. This cardigan will be handed down to little brothers and cousins until it wears out, so why not knit two little two elbow patches to make it last that little bit longer?”
