Knit Wit (Knitwear)

Description

Nowadays mostly reserved for scarves and sweaters, knitted wool was once used for everything that needed to be soft and stretchy: a baby's layette, sports clothing, and even bathing suits. Knitwear was more than just a fabric; in the first half of the 20th century, it came to stand for a new way of life: more leisure, less formality, and - most of all - comfort.
