I went, too! And looked at knitting sticks, knitting samples, and doll stuff. And when I looked at one of the knitting sticks, it was clear to me that it was a nutcracker. So, I asked the helpful person and they said for me to find the item in the collection online when I got home, click the button that allows you to write a note about what's incorrect in the listing, and wait. I did it and, two weeks later, I got an appreciative reply from a curator who also looked at the non-knitting stick and agreed that the record had been wrong since 1912. Now nutcracker admirers have something nice to see and knitting stick admirers won't be fooled into order that object. So, if you've discovered that some of the smock materials are listed incorrectly, they really appreciate your input. With so many objects, they seem grateful for the help. When I went last week, I was told to wear the purple gloves because the cover of the book was "leather." But I quickly realized that the cover was unbleached glazed linen. So, that's going in a note. I LOVE what you chose to see!!! Thank you for sharing these smocks.
