Bridge Aprons Latest Fads War knitting has invaded even the gatherings of bridge enthusiasts, and to make the knitting as conven- ient as possible the bridge apron has been devised. Many hostesses in the larger cities are now loathe to in- vite guests for a bridge party un- less they have an ample supply of bridge aprons, and of course the four aprons for each table must match the table cover, to preserve harmony of appointments. ach bridge apron is provided with a pocket across the front, in which to drop one’s war knitting and incidentally the tally, pencil and scorecard. While acting as “dun:- my” an accomplished knitter can frequently do a row or two, and in these days of need for knitted arti- cles for the soldiers every row is doubly important.
