OK. thanks to the evil woman who pointed out the MFA in Boston site, I've been drooling there for *far* too long. Count Richelieu's gloves intrigue me. Are there examples of knitted gloves *before* 1600?
There is a pair of knitted ecclesiastical gloves in the MFA collection that are labelled "16th century". (item #38.1339a/b) That would put them in the 1500's...unfortunately further information is not displayed with the item.
