knitting in history

How about those groovy hairstyles? Or that Father Knows Best sweater? Or if you look beyond that you've gotta dig the outrageous flower drapes coupled with that boldly striped couch!



Part of the University of Arizona's Photography Special Collection, this knitting photo takes us back a couple of decades to a simpler time.

I particularly love the radiator in the background. Reminds me of my childhood, as does the whole photo. Thanks.

Wow does that picture take me back a 'few' years. Details - I didn't notice the radiator until I read the comments and yes it takes me back to my younger days also. Keep the pictures coming.

I also really dig those pearl necklaces. What happened to those? It used to be that you weren't completely dressed without a necklace.
