Description
This book is a revised edition of 'Guernsey and Jersey Patterns' published in 1955, omitting some of the knitting history and stories, but giving more patterns, and including several new items which have been discovered since the first book was written. These include full directions for knitting a Channel Islands guernsey. Also one from Fife in anchor pattern, and full directions for making two sets of sweaters and cardigans adapted for ladies' wear; they are knitted in Filey and Seahouses designs. Earlier Filey patterns dating from 1822 have been included, also a Sheringham and two Norfolk guernseys.
