Description

Vintage children's knitting pattern from a Modes de Paris magazine, visible on the cover. This document features a sleeveless vest (pullover) pattern with a star motif, worn by a boy. The photographed ensemble highlights a predominantly blue knit, embellished with yellow and white stripes forming star patterns, set against a striped shirt and matching trousers. The general style, colors, and layout are typical of children's fashion magazines from the 1970s.

The cover displays the title "MODES de PARIS présente LA RENTRÉE SOUS UNE BONNE ÉTOILE" (MODES de PARIS presents BACK TO SCHOOL UNDER A LUCKY STAR). In the bottom right corner, the model's name "ANDROMEDE" is indicated, with a note specifying that instructions can be found on page 40. The cap worn by the child features the inscription "leop" on a patch, a characteristic detail of the visual's retro aesthetic.

The pattern offered features a vintage-look knit, with a V-neckline and navy blue ribbed edges. The staging, the typography of the cover, and the photograph attest to a retro aesthetic, true to the spirit of children's fashion publications of that era.

The visible page shows no major apparent defects: the colors remain vibrant, the printing is clear, and the inscriptions are legible. Some traces or marks of use may be observed on the surface, consistent with the document's age.
