Vintage Kitten Junior Slipover

Bulky Yarn Sleeveless Pullover Top ~ This little top will take you back to days when you were twisting the night away. Probably early 60’s, not sure there’s no date in the booklet. It’s an American Thread Co. Star Book No. 167 — Begin to Knit. So perfect for beginners.

Dawn Bulky Yarn

The pattern uses American Thread Company “Dawn” Bulky Yarn.

The earlier Bulky Yarn was 100% wool, but this is 50/50 Wool/Nylon. It also states on the package 2 Fold ~ 2 ounces, washable colors and anti-shrink, anti-stretch.

I did a search on Amazon and there are several bulky yarns I think would work well with this pattern.

I like this Mary Maxim Marvelous Chunky Yarn. These shades of blue are definitely my colors and would undoubtedly make a pretty top.

And there is good old Bernat Softee Chunky Yarn. Quite an assortment of colors to choose from with this yarn.
