    The 4th item, the white crochet short-sleeved cardi, is alright! The rest would remind you of your grandma's knitting pattern collection of the 60s.

    Some are kind of cool in a retro sort of way. Does anyone have photos of Irish outfits from the same era? :D

    I remember there used to be a learning russian language programme
    on BBC in the 1980's, these reminded me of it.

    Big snowflake pattern jumpers all round!

    Mind you some of this gear from the 1979 catalong found here:
