From Beverly Barton, "From an Anny Blatt pattern. I made this in the mid-80s for DD#1. Used French angora for the kitty and yarn balls, and Hayfield wool blend for the rest.  Made by Beverly Barton ca 1985 or 1986 for eldest daughter (#1 child) in San Clemente, CA.  Most of it is a Hayfield wool blend, with accents of Belangor 100% Angora."

From Beverly Barton, "My mother made it years ago. She loved gold buttons and raglan sleeves. Probably designed it also.  Made in Los Angeles, CA ca 1980-2000 by Sally Feigen (1924-2011) for herself. Unknown yarn (feels like acrylic)."

From Beverly Barton, "Made by Sally Feigen in Brooklyn, NY ca 1964-1965 of 100% Scottish mohair for me, Beverly Barton née Feigen. I think she designed it too. I wore it through college; it was huge on me."

The green set is made in a newborn to 6-month size and the pink set is larger, perhaps 9-month to 1 year.  Both are knitted in baby or sport weight yarn in a feather and fan pattern.  They were made for Marilyn Huset by her maternal grandmother, Lulu Billig Royston.

The yarn is urth uneek worsted. The garments were both knit from a single skein of yarn to make a complete set of clothing.

The set was knit for the first born child of the maker’s closest friend.

The sweater was knit from Gabrielle Danskknit’s Winter Sunset pattern, and the soaker was knit from Rebecca Krolikowski’s Frantic Mama Knitted Soaker Pattern.]]>
