It wasn't until I got to the fourth picture that I realised you had added the captions - I thought they were some strange seventies marketing campaigns! Love these pictures x Jane
So funny. Whenever someone compliments me on an outfit I'll go into a 60's/70's pose...fake surprise, point at sky, sassy hands on hips...most people think I'm nuts. I think I'm hysterical. The last caption "My hair is better than your hair." Connie*
Brilliant, aren't they? I pick up old patterns in charity shops - can't knit, I use them to make birthday cards with my own hilarious captions, usually featuring the name of the recipient and usually highly vulgar... xxxx
I have some older ones (B&W) and they're just as bad. All the men with vests are in horse riding gear, or something outdoorsy, with their male friends. As a kid I was so curious about the lovely poised feet from the sock patterns. And everyone was just so gosh darned beautiful and happy!! This was a great post. Wendy
I love your captions! The poses on these old patterns are always funny. I like it when they grin inanely into the distance. That last one looks like the woman's being restrained a bit! xxx

One of the things I love about my vintage patterns are the poees, they are so cheesy
Tee hee - your captions gave me a good giggle. They do seem to take it all very seriously, don't they!

Yeah, the poses are great!
The last one... I thought about: 'See, with this wig he thinks I am a woman' ;-)
I have a couple of great ones, I must dig them out. Who knew 'double knitting' was an euphemism?

If he doesn't unhand me I'll land him a fourpenny one!

Ha! These just crack me up. Fun post!
I knitted that cardigan on the second pattern! I wore it for ages.
Neat. I have a thing for old Paton's patterns. Thanks.
