« Back to Knitting with D.E. Stevenson
Five Windows (1953)
In "Five Windows," the main character, one of Stevenson's rare "male leads," sets of from his home in the Scottish Borders to make something of himself in London -- surely his mother might have knitted him something like this slipover, living on his own for the first time in a top-floor flat miles from home?! This Femina pattern is available for purchase from The Vintage Knitting Lady -- https://www.thevintageknittinglady.co.uk/menspatterns.html -- and yes, that IS a very young Roger Moore!
