Spring is in the air!

At least on this side of the world; soon, Spring will be all over cars, houses, us, making everything a dusty shade of yellow. So what better time to stay indoors and sew something new? Here are some picks for springtime style:





Butterick 4510 mixes 60s sophistication with a flattering A line silhouette -- wear it on its own, or with a cardigan for that unpredictable Spring forecast!




Simplicity 7635 features Mod lines and a different neckline for a warm-weather winner!



Fashion doesn't stop at the hemline -- add these vintage 1960s thigh-his for a softer take on the classic fishnet.




Can't forget the little ones! Simplicity 3068 is a delightful 1940s design that will add a special touch to Passover or Easter services.



And for our friends on the other side of the hemisphere, a lovely collection of 1950s knitting patterns that will help you knit all kinds of retro beauties to keep you warm!
