Are you still considering presenting a paper online at the Knitting History Forum Conference in November 2021? KHF welcomes original research papers from contributors around the world on items such as knitted hats, caps, bonnets, gloves, stockings or shoes, from any culture and within any historical period up to the end of the 19th Century. Why not put on your thinking cap this weekend and submit an extended abstract of between 1200 and 1400 words to KHF chair Prof Sandy Black on s.black@fashion.arts.ac.uk? The deadline of Wednesday 30 June is just days away.
