These patterns for elegant knit tops—from the designer behind Fabel Knitwear—are inspired by historical styles from decades past.

These vintage-inspired knitwear patterns will delight any knitter in search of beautifully feminine, classic styles. These blouses, sweaters, cardigans and vests are inspired by historical fashion with subtle period accents and stunning silhouettes. Designed by Helene Arnesen, of the popular yarn and pattern brand Fabel Knitwear, these garments use high quality hand-dyed yarns to create gorgeous, polished pieces of wearable art.

Each garment in the book features unique, thoughtful details that nod to a decade or historical era, like the intricate lace cuffs on the Lucrezia Blouse. Knitters will be enchanted by the Regency-inspired Bennett Blouse or the Victorian-style puff sleeves on the Oxford Jumper. Or knitters can jump ahead in history to knit up a 1920s-inspired Marigold Vest complete with bow closure or a 1940s berry-and-vine decoration on the Nettle Cardigan. These patterns are perfect for knitters to add to their handmade wardrobe with pieces showcasing gorgeous vintage style.

This book will have 15 patterns, including full page photography for each one.
