This Simplicity knitting pattern is from 1973. I remember my mom making me this knitted and smocked vest. I seem to think it was knit in brown.
Does anyone know if Simplicity who are known for sewing patterns still produce patterns for knitting? If so, I wonder if they still include this sage advice:
Simplicity was serious about simplicity. If only lace shawl patterns were this clear!
We can dream.
Happy knitting!

Wow, that's an oldie but a goodie!
What really funny is that knitting a vest like that would be stylish again.
Wow...I never knew Simplicity did knitting patterns back then.
Oh that's awesome! Why do I seem to remember a Simplicity knitting magazine??
That is a cool looking pattern! If they don't still make knitting patterns, they should.
