Title

Munsing knitting samples

Creator

Munsing, George D
Munsingwear, Inc

Date

Created: 1881 - 1883

Description

Thirty-seven knitting samples, four of which are illustrated. These samples exemplify a variety of textures, patterns, colors and yarn types, including four sample mittens. Each sample is dated between 1881 and 1883. As the dates are too early for Munsingwear (established in 1886 as the Northwestern Knitting Company), these samples were possibly used by George Munsing while he was superintendent for Rochester Knitting Works in New York.
