What Happened In October 1932 - And Some Knitting

I wonder how much longer we will be in October 1932? The knitting is speeding along so we might be moving on very soon.

I like the blousy effect of the sleeve. I am looking forward to seeing what it looks like made up. 

Before we leave October, let's take a quick look at a few of the events of that month.

October 3, 1932 (Monday) - Iraq gained independence from Britain and was admitted to the League of Nations.

October 7, 1932 (Friday) - The London Philharmonic Orchestra gave its first concert at Queen's Hall. Queen's Hall was later destroyed by bombing in 1941.

October 19, 1932 (Wednesday) - Henry Ford gives his first radio speech, in which he appealed for the re-election of President Herbert Hoover.

October 24, 1932 (Monday) - Britain signs a trade treaty with USSR.

October 25, 1932 (Tuesday) - Benito Mussolini promises to remain dictator for 30 years. He also stated in his speech that all Europe would be Fascist within a decade.
