Glove in the Glendyne pattern, "JNF" at wrist
Example of a Sanquhar pattern glove in black and white wool to illustrate the "Glendyne" design. This is a place name and also the title of Robert Nivison, Lord Glendyne, the son of a local colliery manager who became a successful stockbroker at the turn of the century.
This example was knitted by Miss Jane N Forsyth, then in her seventies, using size 15 needles and 3 ply wool. It has the initials "JNF" at the wrist. Her gloves were displayed at various country shows over the years.
