Now that knitting is suddenly trendy, you’ll be needing some patterns. And some of the cutest out there just happen to be from last century. 1920 to 1950, to be exact. You’ll find them in a new book called Vintage Baby Knits, which features more than 40 heirloom patterns along with some utterly delightful images of children in the various designs.

See some of the photos after the jump!
