Description: Gloves for men, ladies, and juniors.The gloves are knitted over 4 needles.
So what makes them riding gloves you ask? Well, they are made using a yarn designed specially for the purpose (Strutt's Glove Cord), which has a special scrooped* finish (who knew?). I think my Father had some of this type of glove in silk (or possibly Strutt's Glove Cord - who knows?): *Scroop is a term used to describe a finish with synthetic fibers and silk. Scroop can be induced in silk in two ways: one way is to leave the gum of the silk (sericin) behind and not remove it, and the other way is by treating silk with organic acid such as formic, lactic, citric or acetic and drying without washing. In case of synthetic fibers, cohesive agents are used to increase the fiber-to-fiber friction. and this also increases scroop. If a fabric is made from a yarn having high scroop a harsh handle is produced. ![]() |

Double knitting Price:
£2.00 (includes

Description:
Apart from the short style (which you can knit longer of course), and if you didn't already know very well, this was a classic 1980s styling, in colour and design - reminds me of the styles in the Gap when it first hit the UK. No less appealing for all that in my opinion though - very fresh and fun. |

knitted on 2 needles using a slip-stitch which results in a tube which
is turned inside out to form a double thickness stocking stitch scarf.

Double Knitting Price:
£3.00 (includes

Description:
This looks like the sort of pattern a man
would want to wear; plain with all the effect achieved through the tweedy
yarn. Bracken Tweed was an exceedingly nice yarn - I made my brother-in-law
a plain roll neck when I was about 13 - you need to substitute something
like Rowan Felted Tweed - but check your tension - as you can see, Bracken
was a fairly dense DK whereas Rowan's is equally lovely but a lighter weight DK. |
