            Note3 tension
        Note A generic net mask (stitch) that is quite different to the vertical and tesselated patterns that really are characteristic of Sheringham so it might have been commercially produced even though hand knitted. On the other hand it could have been knitted in Sheringham, as there are several examples of this or similar designs.
