Re: "get a guernsey"?

The BBC R4 current "book of the week" is a biography of Victor Hugo's writing of "Les Miserables". Last night's episode dealt with his exile on the Channel Island of Guernsey in 1855. The opening 35 seconds on iPlayer mentions the knitting products with the corrupted verbal form of the island's name.
