When there + are purl and plain stitches in a row, bring the cotton forward to + purl, and pass it back before knitting the plain stitch. + +_To knit 3 together_--Slip a stitch, knit 2 together, turn the slipped + stitch over them, leaving but 1 stitch. + +_A slipped stitch_ should always be taken off the purl way. + +_To purl_, is to put the pin the contrary way to knitting plain; in + knitting, the pin is put up the stitch, in purling it is put down. + +When this mark (*) occurs in a row, the stitches before it are not to be + repeated in the row, being merely the edge stitches to prevent the + work from decreasing; thus, when knit 3 together is in a row, the row + generally begins with knit 2 together, and ends the same. + +_The stitch over_ in many of the patterns, is always knitted as the 1st + stitch, as many patterns end with make 1, it could not be done + without this stitch. + +Many ladies in working a pattern, copy on cards each row separately; + this prevents confusing one row with another. + +The stitches between the mark, thus (knit 2 together 3 times) are + worked, knit 2 together, knit 2 together, knit 2 together; this + prevents useless repetition. + +The pins and meshes are all gauged by the standard or wire-drawer's + gauge. + +_To raise stitches_--Put the pin in the selvedge or side of the + knitting, put the wool round the pin as in knitting, and bring it + through, so as to form a stitch. + +_To make a stitch_--Bring the wool forward between the needles. + + + + +KNITTING. + + +Manchette or Undersleeves. + +_In 2 colors of Berlin wool._ + +_Pins 19, 17, 11, 1 pair of each, with the colored wool cast on with 19 + pins, 66 stitches._ + +1st row--Purl 1, knit 1. + +2nd row--Knit 1, purl 1. + +Repeat these 2 rows 4 times more, making in all 10 rows, then join on +the white wool, and with No. 11 pins, knit 1 plain row. + +12th row--Make 1, knit 2 together. + +Repeat the last 2 rows 11 times more, making in all 24 of white;

Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm + +Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of +electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers +including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need are critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org. + + +Section 3.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://pglaf.org + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including including checks, online payments and credit card +donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. |
