Pretty hand knitted wool cardigan would have originally been a bed jacket but is now cheerfully promoted to day wear.
Cardigan is knitted in a lacy honeycomb pattern and has moss stitch yoke and bands. The short sleeves have narrow turned back cuffs. Cotton lace trims the neck and yoke and it closes at the yoke with three glass flower buttons. 1930s-1940s.
Polka dot bra sold separately.
