I got this book yesterday from Oxfam. Initially drawn to it by its beautiful cover it turned out the be as lovely on the inside as well, and, these knitting projects seem quite straight forward with 'simple' instructions and illustrated pictures. So, now I'm off downtown to get some knitting needles. I'll attempt to make the close fitting hat. Following patterns isn't really my kind of thing, with my crocheting I just make things up, but maybe, now, I'll try and be patient and follow it through. Wish me good luck. So far I've only ever knitted a pair of legwarmers and a snood-hood.
If you are interested in knowing more about the patterns, let me know and I'll scan some. x
The book was published in 1939.
