Description: Excellent pattern for a man's zipped cardigan in a wide chequered pattern created in sections of plain and purl. I am fairly confident that this is a very early example of modelling by Roger Moore - making it all the more lovely. However, sadly, the instructions are given for only one moderate man's size.
The pattern is in a delicate condition with some tears; The instructions are in tact but I will also supply a clean copy of them along with the original pattern.
This pattern is also featured in Jane Waller's book Man's Knitting Book: Classic Patterns from the 20's to the 50's - published in 1984. The pattern is reproduced as is - not revamped with additional sizes - unlike later collaborations where Susan Crawford redrafts similar vintage patterns.

This pattern is from my personal collection - I bought it in a shop in Falkirk in the 1980s (my father-in-law liked fine hand knitted pullovers) and it had clearly been on sale and unloved for a long time; the lady in the shop looked at the price on the cover and was going to charge me 6p - which was ridiculously cheap even then - and then, somewhat flustered, she said "o dear, no - that 6d isn't it? so that will be - let me see - 2½p isn't it?" - and so I solemnly handed over 2½p.

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?):
"This article has been specially designed for glove making. It is particularly hard-wearing and its special scrooped finish imparts a characteristic feel to the gloves which are ideal for riding, driving, or any use where hard wear is important".

*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.
