Vintage Tuesday: Knaughty Raglan
March 9, 2010
He always did have a naughty side…
… but three was a crowd.
Honey, I knew her type from the moment she walked in the door. She was young. wild. sinful.
She would stop at nothing to have him.
But she underestimated the power…
… of librarians in love.
Ahhh the 60s. Classic raglan knit gets naughty in the library. This little gem was found in a second hand book store. I got chatting to the owner and it turns out it was her pattern from the 60s and she’d made quite a few polos and round neck raglans in her time. Sadly she reported that none of them seemed to have this effect in the library. Such is life.
Hello. My name is Claire. I have a sock toy addiction. It began two years ago when I was pregnant and nesting. At first I dismissed it. I hadn't sewn in years. "Craft Schmaft" I said. Well it seems this crafty thing is here to stay. This blog brings you the delights of making sock softies, fabric finds and crafty inspiration from round the interweb.

Yep, those pointy boobs look mighty uncomfortable. Even in Raglan.
