Like I said in the last Workbasket post - I've acquired a pile of these old needlework leaflets and had to share some scans.... too many to toss in a single post. So here's some more knitted creations to burn onto your retina. Enjoy.

"Teens delight" is right.... only not for the teen wearing it. Local bullies will be the ones delighted.
Okay, buddy. It's a nice sweater.... but could you close your legs. Yeesh!

She looks a bit like one of Santa's elves, but I kind of dig it. I wonder if she's wearing wear pointy shoes.

Perfect attire for studying the Assyrian civilization. I looked some of these words up, and tried to piece together what the hell she's teaching. I'm familiar with Mount Ararat and the Babylonians,... but Kadar and Madai? No clue.
He's got a toothpick for a pointer and a tee-tiny little map.... his mike is massive, though.
Okay, I'll stop here. I'm starting to feel like the Joan Rivers of the vintage knitting world. Time to call it a day.
