Parisian Delight

Parisian Delight

$8.00

PDF KNITTING PATTERN. PRICES ARE IN USD.

In the corseted days of yesteryear, bloomers and bicycles meant freedom for the sensible woman-about-town. Parisian Delight is a tribute to those first women to shed their skirts and hop on two wheels. It’s a playful feminine garment, perfect for indulging in your own shocking spectacle of independence, or just lounging about at home. They’re worked seamlessly from the bottom up in a silky, luxurious yarn; the seat is shaped with short rows for a flattering, comfortable fit, and flirty lace edges the cuffs.

This pattern was originally known as Miss Bloomers Bifurcated Ensemble, but has since been updated and now includes more sizes.

Lace pattern given in charted and written instructions.
