some 80s trash


my mum has been having a clean out of her cupboards - prompted by a dancing queen who is desperate for the sheet music for ABBA that mum has kept all these years - and she came across a sewing pattern that i was mad for in the 80s. i'm pretty sure i made the 'cagoule' (has anyone, anywhere ever heard of a cagoule?), or a shortened version, the 'anorak', in a magenta polyester of course. can't quite remember which other pieces i made but the pattern has certainly made me hanker for the days of "knitwit", big hair and coloured pantyhose.
