There are many reasons for loving vintage knitting patterns. Last weekend's haul brought an unexpected delight.
Oh Aussie children of the 70s and 80s, do you recognise this male knitwear model from a Patons pattern from the very late 1960s?
Do yourself a favour, try imaging a large Akubra hat on him.

oooh! that's too funny!
LOL,I didnt pick it even though I thought it was familiar!!
eeeeewww!!!
Nice find! He has a very distinctive mouth, doesn't he?
Hee hee, too funny! I thought he looked familiar, but then I got distracted by the border pattern. On a less boxy jumper, that could be really nice...
I got it, I got it! [but I had to see the second picture to do so!]
I guessed it was Molly!! I ahve a book with Livinia Nixon in it. Before they were famous!! I like the blocky colour pattern too.
That's completely hilarious. He almost looks straight in those photos!
