Original Toronto Star caption: Victoria and Wyn Briton; The Star Weekly knitting contest's famed refugee dolls from Britain; are now ready to face the coldest of Canadian weather. They have been temporary guests at the home of Mrs. Edgar Webb; Toronto; whose nimble fingers have clicked out everything in the way of woollens for them-from toques to socks. Mrs. Webb; seen here holding the dolls; has been knitting 15 years and is expert. The woollens worn by Vicky and Wyn are perfect replicas of the sort of clothes worn by real people. Mrs. Webb says.
