Victorian Inspired Knitwear From the 1960's and 1970's

5/17/2014

      I picked up some Japanese machine knitting magazines as part of my ongoing research for collections and new technique ideas. Some of these are so fun and inspiring so I felt like sharing. There's a curious Victoriana feel going on in a late 60's/ early 70's kind of way. I love the subtle tailoring and the texture transitions.  These magazines came with a front section of 30-40 styles shot in a fashion magazine format, followed by patterns in the back complete with diagrams and measurements.  There are knitted bellbottoms, cropped intarsia tanks and all sorts of craziness. All I know is: I want that cape!
