1960's Crochet Twin Set (Vintage Pattern)

Last year, I wrote a blog post about a few vintage inspired knitting and crochet projects that I was planning to embark on. After completing a 1950's inspired polka dot sweater, I immediately started working on the next thing that was on my to-make list - this 1960's inspired crochet twin set.The pattern for this crochet twin set is from Patons Book 1318 Vintage Charm: Archive patterns from the 40’s to the 70’s, a pattern booklet I purchased from Spotlight (Singapore). I was initially tempted to make an identical one using pink yarn that is similar to the one used in the book, but I couldn't find anything suitable in Spotlight. Every pink ball of yarn I found in the shop was wool, and wool is icky for hot and humid Singapore. Fortunately, I was shopping with a friend and she persuaded me to pick this sunny pastel yellow acrylic instead. I know, acrylic ain't the best substitute but where do I find cool cotton yarn in Singapore!?Fibre aside, this colour was a great recommendation! I am glad that I listened to my friend and didn't submit to my 16 year old mini-me on the left shoulder that screams for anything in cotton pink.This crochet twin set has turned out to be such a lovely addition to my capsule wardrobe for the months of March and April so far. Matching twin sets are the best for people (like me) who are trying to expand their vintage/vintage-inspired outfit repertoire without hurting the wallet, wardrobe, or world. *insert twin heart emoji*Here's how I have styled my crochet twin set:Hooray to a versatile capsule wardrobe. I can't wait to wear these out more often! xx G
