Knitting

Knitting seems to be a big part of my growing up, with many of the mums, aunts, grannies all knitting away, yet I don't recall any knitting taking place in the show, or did I miss it

Did Sybil knit?

Yes sybil in Getting Sam Home was a knitter. Nora knit Compo a hat in Crums and either Marina or Cleggy knit Howard a cardigan for xmas in Merry Christmas Father Christmas but didn't actually see the last two

Your namesake must have been a knitter because she recognised that the cardigan in Merry Christmas Father Christmas was hand knitted. I don't recall if Ivy was a knitter.

Would this be the right thread for a 'knit one, pearl one' reference

To be fair it was so badly knitted I think it was a given that it was done by hand. I don't recall Ivy, Nora or Edie having mentioned knitting but Glenda did knit a jump for Barry that he wasn't keen on.

As I said on Adrian's post Glanda knitted Barry a jumper.
