- In this video I show you my process for knitting the Mary Quant Cable Sweater that was published in 1966.
The original pattern was a collaboration between Mary Quant and EMU Yarns. The yarn company still exist and I was able to substitute the original EMU DK yarn recommendation with their modern day equivalent that knits to the exact same tension!
Here is a link to the EMU Yarns website for more information:

Thanks for stopping by and taking the time to watch this video!
I love what you're doing with vintage patterns! Thank you!
@@saramerrick3539 thank you for taking the time to watch my video and for your kind comments. I’ll be uploading some more videos of my vintage knits soon 🤗
I’m so glad to have found your channel-it’s really exciting to see vintage knitting for the mod era!
@@amyharris8801 thank you for taking the time to watch my video and for your kind comments 🤗 the mod fashion is great 😃
Yes please my nan passed a lot of really old patterns to me and I buy most of my yarn from the knitting network and they stock a lot of emu yarn so id love to see you knit swatches with newer yarns,especially as I find a lot of the newer acrylic yarns are thinner than the older yarns. Thank you for your channel. Its a breath of fresh air to find a yarn or knitting review from an english person on youtube, as most of them seem to be american knitters using yarn we're not able to get in the uk.
@@valrose242 thank you for taking the time to watch my video and for your kind comments 🤗 That’s so nice of your Nan to give you some old patterns 💕💕💕 Ironically I’m shortly going to be uploading a video where I visited a yarn shop in Jersey that only stocked yarns from the US 😂 this is a one off as I was away on holiday in Jersey and needed my yarn shop fix 🧶🧶🧶. Normally the yarns I tend to use are UK or European based yarn companies 👍
Beautiful knit, Natalie! That pattern is gorgeous. Is was great to hear more about the Emu yarn - what a bargain - the materials for a jumper for £8! Thanks for the informative video, as always 😊
Thanks Carrie 🤗 I’m pleased you enjoyed the video 😃 thank you for taking the time to watch it xx
Looks stunning 😍 Also love the pattern "book" that you showed. If only I had enough money and time.... 😄
@@skadiwolf1371 thank you for watching my video and taking the time to write a lovely comment 🤗 I’m pleased you like the top and the pattern book 😃
Cool pattern, looks lovely in red. Emu has such lovely colours and wish I could buy it, but i'm in NZ.
@@isithometimeyet6553 thank you for taking the time to watch this video 🤗 that’s such a shame you don’t have these yarns available in NZ.
@@knittingagogo I found a good UK website to buy from. They have so much variety. I love that you are doing retro patterns. My mother always like English Vogue knitting patterns from the '60s. She really didnt like the American version in the '80s.
@@isithometimeyet6553 that’s good you found a website in the UK to buy from 🤗 I have collected all the vogue pattern books from the 1960s and the designs are stunning 🤩 Did you see one of my earlier videos where I knitted a yellow lace dress from an original 1969 Vogue Knitting pattern? Here is the link to the first part of the video:
