"James Norbury è stata la più forte influenza singola nella lavorazione a maglia britannica durante i venticinque anni successivi alla seconda guerra mondiale" Sir Bishop Richard Rutt, autore di A History of Hand Knitting "[Alla fine degli anni '60] c'era un tizio chiamato James Norbury, che aveva il suo show di maglieria sulla BBC. Ho partecipato ad alcuni dei programmi, ed erano anche delle belle cose. Ho imparato un sacco di cose piccanti su "lavora a maglia uno, lavora a rovescio uno" "Sir David Attenborough" Lavorare a maglia è salvare una vita" Virginia WoolfJames Norbury scrisse The Penguin Knitting Book nel 1957. Viaggiò molto in tutto il mondo, studiando ogni aspetto del mestiere del magliaio. Storico della maglia, insegnante e designer, nonché star televisiva del suo show sulla maglia della BBC, è stato capo designer per Patons e una delle massime autorità in materia di storia della maglia.
