Talk:History of knitting

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Aran Islands aren't in Scotland so I made a minor change and stuck Ireland into the sentence until someone gets a chance to elaborate on Irish knitting. Cate (daylilly)

[edit] Consolidation with knitting article?

Is there a reason that this article shouldn't be consolidated with the main article about knitting? Many Wikipedia entries have History sections in them, and this one should be no exception.

I tend to agree, however it would make the knitting page very long --Knerq 20:40, 27 September 2005 (UTC)

I think the article is certainly long enough and interesting enough to stand on its own and there is a briefer sketch in the main knitting page, just as is the practice with most countries and so forth. I would oppose a merge. Rigadoun (talk) 18:47, 6 December 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Intro

The article could benefit from a small intro just giving a basic definition of what it's about, It would help orientate the reader towards what's to come insteadof jumping right in, and is also preferred by the MoS. Would look better as well (not that it's not already quite nice). --DanielCD 01:34, 16 March 2006 (UTC)
