Vintage Knitting - A Bag from 1952


Two pages from Workbasket magazine, November 1952, with instructions for a knitted bag and as a bonus, how to make and use a spool knitter (also known as a French knitter, a knitting Nancy, or a knitting nobby) for the cord.

Also known as a corker, according to mum, for corking, aka spool knitting.
Wonder how many other names this little gadget has?
