These are 4 beautiful designs for underwear sets: vest and panties from the early 1930s.
Each one is made for a different size but these are relatively simple garments to up size by adding a pattern repeat or taking the larger or smaller size and working to that stitch count would work out too (probably)
Date: early to mid 1930s
