Description

You'll be so stylin' in this set, you won't even notice the hottie mending a fishing net behind you. This wide turtleneck tank sweater and matching skirt are too cute! It is completely on point with today's fashion with its color blocking and simple clean lines. It's hard to find these things in the thrift shop, so just make one... you get the style you want, and you get to pick the color and size.

This listing is for the knitting pattern only. It is a .pdf file that I will email to you.

This pattern is originally from Spinnerin, Volume 167, published in 1964. This is no longer in circulation, so in order to make it available for more vintage loving knitters, I am transcribing the instructions exactly as written in the original pattern book and offering them here.
