Description
A talk on the general history of knitting belts, showing the straw and feather sheaths used before and how it is likely leather belts evolved. In this talk Janette will discuss their benefits and how they are used to allow walking and knitting, along with what life was like 100 + years ago when they began using leather knitting belts. Included in the talk are photos from the Shetland Museum and Archives Collection. Many thanks to the staff there.
Get in touch if you are interested in hosting an online or in person version of my talk.
