Hello,

This is my first post and I am very, very new to this so please forgive me
if I am doing it all wrong.

I do wonder if you could please help me.

My Aunt recently passed away (aged 81) and some time ago and many years ago
knitted a bolero/shrug type cardigan for me, I am talking about 12 years
ago. Unfortunately the pattern as got more or less destroyed, heaven knows
where she kept it and I would dearly like to purchase it. The pattern is,
Patons No is PBN C 4800, I have goggled searched but have found no results
as I really do not know where to start or how to do it.

However, I have made a small start and e-mail to Patons and got two replies
one form USA (I think) and one from Uk, I also telephoned UK and got the
same answer. USA said that it was not theirs and UK say that they have no


I have not knitted for some years and would dearly love to knit a
bolero/shrug with short sleeves but every pattern I look at seems to have
long sleeves and is too short for what I would like (I am 54). I am
looking for one that is waist length at the back.

Please can anyone help me on both of these requests

Thanking you in advance
Sophie

If you find a pattern you like except for the long sleeves, make them
shorter.
