Winter Woolies Knitting Pattern - 1945

IT'S SNOWING!!! It's been coming down thick and fast since about 9 this morning and I can't wait to get some snowy outfit photos!

In celebration of the winter wonderland, I thought I'd post this knitting pattern from January 1945 - how cute is this for a snow day outfit? The intro's so sweet: "The problem of coupons often means you can't stretch them to a coat for the country, so why not copy our cover girl and wear an attractive sweater, cap and mitts?"

The sweater is sized for a 36" bust, but if you're a clever knitting lady you'll no doubt be able to figure out how to size up or down.
