Is knitting making a comeback? I sure see a lot of trendy looking yarn places popping up in the "cool" parts of towns - sometimes right between a coffee shop and a "medical" marijuana store. Chalk it up to just being another fad.... or, maybe it's a bit deeper than that. In a generation where nothing is handmade and everything is disposable, it probably seems kinda wonderful to actually create something yourself and have it for keeps. Just a thought. Enjoy "Pop Fashions", a needle craft pamphlet from the sixties.

Oh! A poncho! My sister had one that was blue and it had a cap to go with it.
ReplyDeleteNothing says "high fashion" like a granny square.
ReplyDeleteKnitted clothes went nowhere except to Etsy. I was born in 1968 and shop on Etsy for handmade Neo Vintage all the time. One seller I buy from, who's a friend, makes and sells crocheted and knitted Neo Vintage clothes just like this. It didn't "go" anywhere. You can have a poncho like that now. Just take out your Visa card. :)
