Vintage Sweater
Label: Kay Wilson, La Jolla, California
Fabric: Orlon acrylic, grosgrain ribbon
This cute cardigan sweater is navy blue with red, cloth covered buttons down the front. The sweater is super soft. There is a red and white ribbon accenting the lower left front. On the ribbon is an embroidered flower and a three dimensional, raised folk dancer. On the right shoulder is another ribbon like this with a folk dancing couple. This ribbon wraps around the shoulder and on the other side is a folk dancer holding a basket of fruit above her head.
Condition: very good, the only flaws are a tiny dot of rust on the bottom of the ribbon wrapping around the shoulder, a tiny dot of rust at the bottom of this same ribbon in front, and a tiny dot of rust near the bottom of the ribbon on the bottom left, there are also a couple of repairs to the sweater that can’t be seen unless you search for them
