Vintage periwinkle blue 1980s does 1930s? handmade jumper - can’t decide!
This is one of those that has had me second guess myself a few times. I initially thought 70s. Jury is still almost out in my head, collar looks earlier but I am leaning on later because of the sleeve and slightly synthetic feeling rayon thread.. it’s silky slippery.
(It came from the same lady’s great aunt, along with a very pretty 40s crepe and some smart fifties suits.. then more matronly 60s outerwear - I’ll let you make up your own mind, but don’t be fooled by the buttons as I am afraid I added them as missing the originals. Would be nice with glass ones!)
Completely handmade, one little construction flaw I noticed and the odd slightly pulled open work section but overall excellent. You can re-distribute most pulls in the knit. Ready to wear.
