Good afternoon lovelies!
I’ve picked up my knitting again for the first time in about a year. Luckily, it’s all coming back to me: casting on and off, knit, pearl, etc. Unfortunately, I’m not advanced enough to make any of the bed sweaters in my last ‘Knitting Pretty’ post. However, I shall soldier on and keep at it.
Today, I wanted to treat you with another vintage pattern. This time it’s a 1950s Nautical Sweater, with two flags on it. I’m crazy about all things nautical and sailor, as you probably realize from previous posts (ship jelly belly earrings, Captain swing dress).

I hope to one day be able to knit this gem! If you complete it, do let me know. I’d love to see photos.
Ahoy, Mateys!

Oh, for the Love of Vintage! 
Very cute!
What a great idea! Love the images. The top and bag are magnificent! Sadly, I don’t know how to knit. Maybe I’ll crochet a lightweight summer wrap. Crocheting always soothes my nerves. Thanks for the reminder! Theadora (I’m looking forward to seeing progress shots!)
Hi Catwalk and Theadora. I do wish I was better at knitting. I’ve always wanted to learn how to crochet also. I hear it’s easier to learn than knitting. I’ve added a crochet project above, a sailor cap! ;0
The sailor cap is so cute! Maybe I’ll give it shot. With a pompom! Crocheting is easier (in my world!). Plus, the TSA will usually let you board the plane with a small plastic needle. Theadora
I’m so loving the sweaters. I think I have to start knitting!! Hopefully it will come back to me too…, it’s been, hmmmm 35years!
