Although many vintage knitting and crochet patterns have a certain charm to them, you can’t help but giggle at a few that aren’t quite so timeless! Scroll through the following vintage patterns for men and admire the daring use of patterns, colour and style – which all come together in beautiful harmony.
Who's a pretty boy?
We’re not sure what’s more impressive: the jumper, the mullet or the cockatoo…
Man and dog
This takes ‘dogs look like their owners’ to a whole new level.
Piano man
“We’re all in the mood for a melody, and you’ve got us feelin’ alright.”
Grin and bear
We can only imagine what these three are really saying to eachother…
Silly string
The string vest just had to feature. It’s a good’un!
Green with envy
This one’s in Fashions from the Workbasket, published in May 1972 – and is apparently what architects wear!
Sink or swim
A woolly vest is sure to keep you warm… in the pool!
So seductive
Well, a tunic always helps to show your softer side.
Soggy bottoms
We’re not quite sure who thought this one up. Make it stop!
Someone's dad
This guy looks surprisingly happy!
Granny cool
We don’t like to say it, but along with the robe this smile is slightly disconcerting.
A poncho above
Someone definitely got the short straw!
Two become one
PLEASE tell us the balaclava and scarf are attached.
Against the stream
A 1920s pattern! This is simply delightful.
Face to the wind
Would you try this interesting ski mask or opt for the cold instead?
Tonight, Matthew...
Yes, that really is nineties Stars In Their Eyes host Matthew Kelly. Grr indeed.
