Pump Room Parade Socks
In Northanger Abbey, the Bath pump-room is a meeting place for the fashionable; the place to see and be seen.
When Catherine Morland first travels to Bath with Mr. & Mrs. Allen …
“Every morning now brought its regular duties; shops were to be visited; some new part of the town to be looked at; and the pump-room to be attended, where they paraded up and down for an hour, looking at everybody and speaking to no one.”
This STR LW skein is the colors of a peacock showing off its feathers, just as the fashionable people visiting Bath would go to the pump-room to show off their latest finery.
Yardage approx. 365 (385, 405) yds
