Book No. 156 Fashions for Men: to Knit and Crochet For the MEN in your life! Everyone has heard what is supposed to be the quickest way to a man's heart . . . but we know many ladies who swear that a hand-knit sweater is as sure a lure as a home-baked pie! That sports-loving husband of yours, for example, can choose from the tennis sweater and the hobby sweaters depicting golf, sailing and bowling motifs. (We added boys' sizes to the tennis sweater so junior could get into the act!) The other cardigans and pullovers are suitable for so many occasions (including mowing the lawn) that you will find yourself deluged with requests from fathers, grandfathers and brothers. P.S. To make everybody happy, we have included several crocheted sweaters, so there is no excuse for the men in your life not being the best dressed in town!

FOR OVER 150 YEARS OUR BUSINESS HAS BEEN QUALITY We at COATS & CLARK are proud of our reputation for Quality . . . nevertheless, we never stop trying to improve our products. For instance, before our sewing thread is allowed to reach the customer, it must pass through 31 individual quality check points which include extensive sampling of all finished thread for strength and appearance. All of our other products--crochet cottons, embroidery threads, hand-knitting yarns and zippers--are subjected to equally stringent quality control checking at each stage of production. Our reputation for Quality is upheld by this constant attention to the most minute details, by millions of dollars spent on Research and Development, and most of all, by our earnest endeavor to make only one kind of product--the best!
