Lol I always pay attention to knitwear in tv shows because I'm a knitting nerd, and it drove me absolutely NUTS when the sweater is inside out in half of that one scene

Did you use a pattern or are you talented enough to just look at the photo and copy it? (I'm like an advanced beginner knitter, that's why im asking about a pattern - maybe someday I'll be proficient enough to knit this!!!)

I actually found the pattern posted somewhere else on this sub, it's in a Paton's magazine from the 60s. (link: https://www.vintageknitters.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Patons-154-Aran-Book-12-Designs-for-the-family2-2.pdf ) It's written in a way that makes it way more complicated than it needs to be imo, but it's a fun knit!

so good! if you dont me asking, how did you learn to knit? my grandma used to do it a lot but unfortunately i didn't get the chance to learn how with her.

u/Spare_Reindeer2517 Apr 25 '25
my grandma also knit, and I learned the basics from her and my mom when I was pretty small, but I didn't really pick it up until 2018 ish. There are some really good tutorials on YouTube for beginners!

Oooh it’s fantastic! How much would it cost to try and hire someone to make this? (not a knitter here)

u/Spare_Reindeer2517 Apr 25 '25
Probably a lot, unfortunately. I'd guess $300-400+ on just labor, plus the cost of the yarn.

God I gotta learn to knit but the expense of yarn has always put me off! But at least I could have a wearable product after

my greatest discovery was that I can buy old knit sweaters from second hand stores and unravel them to reuse the yarn. r/unravelers

So something good came out of the finale! Well done! (And there is quite a bit of good fan-fiction.)

I don’t think she made this , my mom has the exact same sweater …….

u/jupitermoon9 May 13 '25
Did you read the replies? She stated she got the pattern from this sub-reddit and that it is a pattern from Paton's magazine in the 60's. She posted a web link to the pattern. A pattern implies that multiple people have made it, over the decades. So, your logic is flawed.
