Vintage 1940s Swim Suit (Bathing Suit) (1124)
$7.99Price
This one piece knitted swim suit pattern comes to you from the late 1940s. Feminine and figure flattering -- and perfect in modern yarns (skip wool to prevent "saggy bottoms") -- this swim suit is perfect beach wear for all of our retro gals. If your figure wouldn't be flattered in this swim suit -- knit it and add a loose coverup that allows parts of the suit to show so you still achieve the vintage look.
The instructions are for a bust size of 32-34 inches. We provide RESIZING instructions HERE if you need to create a bigger bust or garment size. To increase the length of the garment, add rows.
The materials call for Nos. 12 and 11 needles -- note this is UK sizing. For the USA conversion, use 2.75mm and 3mm, respectively.
INCLUDES Suggested materials and full instructions for completing.
NOTE: Vintage patterns many times reference yarn/thread brands no longer available, but do reference yarn/thread types and/or weight. Choose your yarn/thread from current manufacturers and be sure to check your gauge for the pattern if called for.
DELIVERY: This pattern is a digital download. Upon receipt of payment, an email will be sent containing a PDF file of your pattern. No domestic or international shipping charges.
