'Gunner Gloves' knitting pattern

Social History (Museum of St Albans)

'Gunner Gloves' knitting pattern, from a book of knitting patterns produced by Scotch Wool and Hoisery Stores during the Second World War entitled 'Knitted Comforts for our Sailors, Soldiers and Airmen'. One of the ways ordinary people could 'do their bit' dunring the war was by knitting items such as hats, scarves, gloves and socks to be sent out to soldiers, sailors and airmen on active service. These gloves show a pattern specifically designed for this purpose.
