Greetings! Welcome to Sissys Barbie Shop. My name is Christian, I am a 39 year old female who is a hair artist. I absolutely love make overs and the empowerment of women. Barbie spoke loudly with all of careers, young ladies can be whatever they want to be! I am called Sissy by my younger sister Hannah who is a biochemist. My Mother and I have collected vintage Barbies for years. I have hundreds of vintage Barbie, Ken, Skipper and Francie items to pass along. Feel free to contact me if you are looking for a particular item.

Vintage Barbie KNITTING PRETTY #957 (1962), Mattel
DESCRIPTION:
Cardigan - Near mint condition. The pink knitted cardigan is clean and non faded; stain free. Absolutely zero piling or holes. A couple of thinner areas can be seen when the material is stretched. Unfortunately all of the buttons have been re sewn. The original pink thread is present all along the front of the Cardigan, but when I received it, there were no silver buttons. The silver buttons look brand new! The full Barbie label is secure and is in excellent condition. The only repairs made to the sweater were the re attachment of the silver buttons.
Shell - The pink knitted shell shows handling and aging. The shade of the shell is lighter than the cardigan. A couple of small holes to the material below the right arm hole. One hole below the left bust. One hole near the left shoulder blade area and one hole at the left lower back. All snaps are non tarnished and secure, with the exception of the bottom left snap, it is loose. All snaps are functioning. Zero repairs.
