The pattern is ...Yeah, it's a hard one to date. The pattern is very 1940s but the yarn feels like an 80s/90s acrylic to me. If it was actually 1940s it would likely be real wool, and if it was from the 1970s/early 1980s I would expect the acrylic yarn to feel "nastier".

I tend to agree that it's most likely a bit more of a modern piece and would date it to somewhere in the 1975 to 1992 range (just an educated guess though - with classic styles like that, it can sometimes be tricky to peg down just precisely when they were created).<br /><br />♥ Jessica Witchcrafted Lifehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02992822472797191121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1683410278809912462.post-37373980087687943252014-03-04T07:42:33.663-08:002014-03-04T07:42:33.663-08:00Your top is very pretty, it does look like a vinta...Your top is very pretty, it does look like a vintage pattern.

I have some grey Shetland wool I'm spinning next which I'm hoping to make enough from to knit a sweater.
