[I don't know whether any of the items listed were hand-knitted, but I think the ad would have said so if they were.   Hand-knitted garments  would be sold at a premium price - hand-knitted socks in particular were often claimed to be better than the machine knitted variety.    

For clarification of the cryptic figures like 1s 11½d, see my earlier note on prices.]
