Thanks again.

I have supplied copies of patterns for that, from the Knitting & Crochet Guild collection, but I haven't tried knitting of them. The group on Ravelry (knitting for ww1 film) seems to be very helpful in dealing with problems in adapting the patterns, so they can probably advise you better than I can.

I'm just about to start it in connection with a WW1 film. I've mastered the brioche stitch but my 32 stitch swatch in brioche is 4" wide and the back requires 172 stitches to be cast on. Isn't it going to turn out to be enormous?! I'm doing it for a 36" chest. Any help would be much appreciated.
