Well here’s an interesting story. WAG Screen (a community-driven non-profit) is making a film about the WW1 Thimbleby War Memorial in Lincolnshire and in particular about a man named, Robert Crowder. The costume department determined it needed knitted garments in the style of the era:

Here’s their Kickstarter page with all the details and a trailer too.
