An Austrian knit is a must in every vintage lovers wardrobe. From the 1980s, this navy wool cardigan has lovely decorative cable knits to the front, with gold tone buttons and a knubby texture. Finished with a small stand up collar in a deep forest green velvet, this would look lovely over your 1950s cotton dresses, a classic dirndl dress or with jeans.
