Vintage -inspired projects culled from the archives of the legendary knitwear maker. Cleveland sculptor Steven tatar was hunting for scrap metal when he stumbled upon the now-shuttered Ohio Knitting Mills. He now sells limited edition sweaters based on these originals on his Web site, OhioKnittingMills.com
Tatar discovered mint-condition knitwear and patterns when he acquired the mill's archive in 2004. Now, working with the original patterns from the 1940s through the 1970s, he has painstakingly adapted 26 colorful knitwear projects. Vintage photographs.
