+
+                            HOW TO KNIT.
+
+
+The necessary materials for knitting are either cotton, worsted, silk
+or thread, and knitting needles.
+
+Stockings and all knitting worked in rounds require four knitting
+needles, three of which are used for holding the stitches of the
+work, and the fourth to knit with.
+
+The casting on of stitches forms the beginning of knitting. It
+consists of loops formed around a knitting needle. Every loop will
+form a stitch. The number of stitches will determine the width of the
+object which is to be knitted.
+
+There are five different ways of casting on stitches. For the casting
+on of stitches always unroll an end of the cotton long enough to work
+the stitches required, as this end is used in the formation of those
+stitches.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 1. POSITION TO FORM THE FIRST CAST ON STITCH.]
+
+No. 1.—Illustration No. 1 shows the position of the cotton, ready to
+cast on the first stitch. Place the cotton over the thumb and first
+finger of the left hand, in such a way as to have the end of cotton,
+which must be sufficiently long for the required number of stitches,
+fall from the thumb toward the palm of the hand. Hold this end and
+the other part of the cotton with the remaining fingers of the left
+hand. This same position of the cotton is used in illustrations 2 and
+3. Take the needle with the right hand, place it over the cotton,
+between the thumb and the first finger, pass it under the cotton
+resting around the thumb, bring it upward; then pass the needle
+downward, under the cotton resting on the first finger; pass this
+loop through the loop around the thumb, withdraw the thumb from the
+loop; pass the thumb under the end of the cotton, toward the palm of
+the hand; draw this end in order to close the stitch just formed.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 2. CASTING ON OF SINGLE STITCHES.]
+
+No. 2—_Casting on of Single Stitches._—Begin in the same manner as
+described in No. 1, and make 2 stitches. Then take up on the needle
+the loop which is around the thumb (see illustration 2), without
+withdrawing the thumb, insert the needle around the cotton marked _b_
+in illustration No. 2, from right to left, and draw it through loop
+_a_; close this stitch as already directed in No. 1, by withdrawing
+the thumb from loop _a_ and drawing the end of cotton.
+
+
+[Illustration: NO. 3. CASTING ON BY KNITTING.]
+
+No. 3.—This casting on of stitches requires two needles. Form the
+first stitch in same manner as described in No. 1. Then, with the
+left hand, hold the needle on which this first stitch is formed, pass
+the cotton over the first finger of the left hand, take a needle
+with the right hand, and insert the point into the loop on the left
+needle, wind the cotton around the point of the right needle, draw it
+through the loop, *insert the point of the left needle into the loop
+just formed on the right needle, wind the cotton around the point
+of the right needle, draw it through the loop. Repeat from *. See
+illustration 3.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 4. NEW CASTING ON OF STITCHES.]
+
+No. 4—_The Casting on of a New Row of Stitches._—This casting on
+of stitches is generally employed in knitting with worsted, which
+requires a new casting on of stitches in the progress of the work.
+It is done by putting the worsted (see illustration No. 4) over the
+thumb of the left hand, holding the end between the second and third
+fingers, * take up the worsted around the thumb and lying toward the
+palm of the hand, by inserting the needle from under the worsted in
+an upward direction (see illustration No. 4), withdraw the thumb from
+the loop, pass the thumb under the end of worsted resting in the
+palm of the hand, and draw it to close the stitch. Repeat from *.
+
+
+[Illustration: NO. 5. CASTING ON OF STITCHES LEAVING AN EDGE.]
+
+No. 5.—The casting on of stitches illustrated in cut No. 5 forms
+a narrow border after the first row has been knitted. In order to
+easily knit the first row, the casting on of stitches must be done
+on _a pair_ of knitting needles. Unroll an end long enough for the
+required number of stitches. Double it. Fold this doubled end in
+half, insert the point of the needles into the fold, place on the
+first finger of the left hand the long end of the worsted which is
+among the short ends. Place the three short ends over the thumb. Hold
+all these ends with the second finger. Take on the needles the ends
+resting on the thumb (marked _b_ in illustration), and insert them as
+shown in illustration No. 5. Then pass the needles through the loop
+on first finger, in the direction of the arrow, and pass this loop
+through the loop already formed on the needles, withdraw the thumb,
+close the stitch by drawing the three ends, which is done by passing
+the thumb under them.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 6. CASTING ON OF DOUBLE STITCHES.]
+
+No. 6—_Double Casting on of Stitches._—The difference between this
+method of casting on and the preceding is, that every knot forms,
+each time, two loops instead of one, on the needle. The first knot
+must be formed in the same manner as described in No. 5. In order
+to work the second knot, insert once more the needle into the loop
+of three ends which rest on the thumb, marked _a_ in illustration
+No. 6. The arrow, in same illustration, shows where to insert the
+needle and the direction it has to take. This done, insert the needle
+downward into loop _b_, and draw the latter through loop resting on
+the thumb, withdraw the thumb and close the knot. Every loop on the
+needle must be knitted separately at the first row.
+
+
+
+
+WHAT TO KNIT.
+
+
+[Illustration: NO. 7. PLAIN KNITTING.]
+
+Cut No. 7 illustrates plain knitting. This is the stitch generally
+used in ordinary knitting. First, cast on the required number of
+stitches in one of the ways already described. This done, take in the
+left hand the needle on which are the loops, place the thread over
+the first finger of the left hand, hold it with the second finger of
+the same hand. Take the second needle with the right hand, insert its
+point into the stitch, in an upward direction, and throw the thread
+around the right hand needle, from right to left. Draw it through
+the preceding loop and slip the left hand needle from its loop. Every
+loop on the left hand needle is worked in the same manner.
+
+When all the stitches have been worked from the left hand needle,
+take that needle in the right hand and continue to work in same
+manner.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 8. PURLED KNITTING.]
+
+To _Pearl_, _Purl_ or _Seam_, (meaning the same thing), is done by
+holding with the left hand a needle on which a row of stitches has
+been cast. Take a needle in the right hand, place the cotton over the
+left hand needle and the first finger of the left hand, hold the end
+with the second finger of the same hand. Insert the right hand needle
+through the loop on the left hand needle, point right to left, in
+such a manner as to have the cotton just under the right hand needle.
+Pull this cotton through the loop, withdraw the left hand needle from
+the loop, and the purled stitch is formed.
+
+_How to Repair a Stitch which has been Half Knitted, or Dropped while
+Knitting._—In knitting, one ought to be careful not to drop stitches
+or to form half stitches. The latter happens when the thread thrown
+over the right hand needle has not been pulled through the loop of
+the left hand needle. To remedy this, while working the next round
+or row, take the thread which has been thrown over the needle from
+it, and pull it through the loop of the stitch. To repair a dropped
+stitch, insert the left needle into the stitch, gather all the
+threads on the right hand needle and pull them through the loop of
+the stitch, one after the other.
+
+_To Increase._—There are two ways to increase. The first is, to knit
+both in the lower part of the stitch and also in the stitch itself.
+The second way is to bring the cotton forward round the end of the
+right needle, to the front; this forms a loop on the right needle
+when the next stitch is knitted, and this extra loop is the made
+stitch. It is preferable to increase after the first manner in plain
+knitting, as this way of increasing is not so marked. The second
+manner is used in fancy knitting, as it leaves a little opening after
+the stitch is formed.
+
+_To Slip a Stitch_ is to take a stitch off the left needle and to
+_slip_ it on to the right needle without knitting.
+
+With any work knitted in rows, it is necessary that the first stitch
+of every row be worked as a slipped stitch. If it is a row of _purl_,
+the first stitch must be slipped off as if it were plain knitting; if
+it is a row of _plain_ knitting, slip the first stitch off as if it
+were purl knitting.
+
+_How to Narrow._—The usual way of narrowing is to knit two stitches
+together, viz.: put the right needle through two of the loops on the
+left needle, and knit them as one stitch. Another method is to slip
+a stitch, knit one, and then with the left needle cast the slipped
+stitch over the knitted stitch. When the narrowing is used to give a
+certain shape to the work, it is well to employ the first method when
+narrowing at the end of the round or row; and the second method when
+narrowing at the beginning of it.
+
+_Casting Off_ is done as follows: Knit two plain stitches, with the
+left needle throw the first stitch over the second, knit a third
+stitch, throw the second over the third, knit a fourth, throw the
+third over the fourth, and so on until the last stitch is worked.
+Pull the cotton through, and a knot is formed.
+
+_The Joining of Ends_ in knitting ought never to be done by knotting
+them together. It may be done so that no defect is visible on the
+right side of the work, by lapping them three inches together, and
+knitting five inches with doubled thread, leaving the ends on the
+wrong side of the work. These ends can then be neatly darned into the
+wrong side of the work.
+
+
+LADY’S STOCKING.
+
+To knit a stocking, attention must be given to the size of the
+knitting needles, which ought to correspond with the number of the
+material with which the stocking is to be knitted. It would be
+difficult to give the exact number of stitches necessary for any
+given size of stocking, as there is always a difference between the
+knitting of different persons, since some knit loosely, others very
+closely. It must be left to the judgment of the knitter to determine
+the exact number of stitches required for the stocking to be knitted.
+
+The following is the method of knitting a lady’s stocking with No.
+300 knitting silk (or any other material of same size), with needles
+to correspond.
+
+This stocking is knitted, with a double border, as follows:
+
+Cast on 152 stitches on 3 needles. After having cast on the last
+stitch, close the round by knitting the _first_ stitch cast on.
+
+Knit 16 rounds plain.
+
+17th Round.—* Slip 1, knit 1, draw the slip stitch over the knitted
+stitch, make 1; repeat from * to end of round.
+
+18th to 34th Rounds, inclusive.—Knit plain.
+
+Then fold in half the piece knitted, so that the 17th round will form
+the edge of the border.
+
+Pick up on other knitting needles the stitches of the 1st round, _i.
+e._, the stitches cast on, and knit each of them with each stitch of
+the 34th round. This finishes the border. Thus, the lower edge of the
+border forms a fancy design of small scallops. Purl 3 rounds, knit
+plain 3 rounds, purl 3 rounds.
+
+Then knit plain until the leg of the stocking is twelve inches long.
+In the first round of _this_ plain knitting begin the seam stitch,
+which ought to correspond with the last and first stitches cast on.
+This seam stitch is repeated in every third round.
+
+After the twelve inches have been knitted, narrow in the following
+round 1 stitch on each side of the seam. Knit 8 rounds. Narrow 1
+stitch on each side of seam. Knit 7 rounds. Narrow, in manner already
+described. Knit 6 rounds. Narrow. Knit 5 rounds. * Narrow. Knit 4
+rounds. Repeat 20 times from * until 110 stitches and the 2 seam
+stitches are left on the needles. This done, knit plain 30 rounds.
+The knitting of the heel now begins. Divide the stitches by putting
+on 1 needle the 2 seam stitches and 28 stitches on each side of them.
+Thus, there will be upon this needle 58 stitches. Knit this needle,
+backward and forward, in _rows_, making the seam stitches as usual.
+
+When knitting backward, purl _all_ these stitches. When knitting
+forward, knit plain all the stitches with exception of the seam
+stitch, which must be purled. Always slip the first knitted stitch.
+Continue knitting until the flap is 44 rows long, counting each time
+across as 1 row.
+
+1st Row.—Now purl from the left hand side the 28 stitches and the 2
+seam stitches. Purl 2, knit 2 together, purl 1. Turn.
+
+2d Row.—Slip 1, 3 plain, 2 purl (seam stitches), 2 plain, knit 2
+together, 1 plain. Turn.
+
+3d Row.—Slip 1, purl 8 (including seam stitches), purl 2 together,
+purl 1. Turn.
+
+4th Row.—Slip 1, 4 plain, 2 purl (seam stitches), 3 plain, knit 2
+together, 1 plain. Turn.
+
+5th Row.—Slip 1, purl 10 (seam stitch included), purl 2 together,
+purl 1. Turn.
+
+Continue to knit in this wise until the remaining stitches are
+gradually worked off. Then pick up the side stitches of this flap,
+which amount to 36 on each side, and the heel is formed.
+
+Knit the side stitches of the flap, “making 1” now and then, so as to
+make the number of stitches on each side of the heel amount to 40.
+
+Knit again in rounds. After every 2 rounds purl the first 2 stitches
+together, then the last 2 stitches together, of the heel stitches.
+Narrow in this manner 12 times. This done, the number of stitches in
+the whole round is reduced to 110, _i. e._, to the original number
+before the beginning of the heel. Knit plain 50 rounds. Commence
+narrowing of toe as follows: * knit 2 together, knit 8 plain. Repeat
+from * to end of round. Knit 8 rounds plain. * Knit 2 together, knit
+7 plain. Repeat from * to end of round. Knit 7 rounds plain. Knit 2
+together, knit 6 plain, knit 2 together, 6 plain, etc., to end of
+round.
+
+Knit 6 rounds plain; knit 2 together, 5 plain, 2 together, 5 plain,
+etc., to end of round.
+
+Knit 5 rounds plain; knit 2 together, 4 plain, 2 together, 4 plain,
+etc., to end of round.
+
+Knit 4 rounds plain; knit 2 together, 3 plain, 2 together, 3 plain,
+etc., to end of round.
+
+Knit 3 rounds plain; knit 2 together, 2 plain, 2 together, 2 plain,
+etc., to end of round.
+
+Knit 2 rounds plain; knit 2 together, 1 plain, 2 together, 1 plain,
+etc., to end of round.
+
+Knit 1 round plain.
+
+11 stitches now remain. By means of a darning needle, slip these
+stitches upon the silk thread with which the knitting is done. Pass
+this silk once more through the stitches, then draw all the stitches
+together, by pulling the silk thread. Fasten the thread on the wrong
+side of the stocking.
+
+
+HEELS OF STOCKINGS.
+
+There are three other ways of knitting a stocking-heel, as
+illustrations 9, 10 and 11 show. In the directions for knitting these
+heels, the same number of stitches is taken as in the directions for
+knitting the heel of “lady’s stocking,” _i. e._, 28 stitches on each
+side of the 2 seam stitches, thus leaving 54 for the front of the
+foot.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 9. HEEL OF A STOCKING.]
+
+_Heel No. 9._—Knit 44 rows backward (purling) and forward (plain).
+While knitting these rows, make a seam stitch on each side of the
+flap. These 2 seams must correspond with the seam in the center of
+the flap. See illustration No. 9.
+
+When the 44 rows have been knitted, the rounding of the heel
+begins. Knit from right hand side 19 stitches (including the side
+seam stitch), knit 2 together, knit 14 plain (center seam stitch
+inclusive), slip 1, knit 1 plain, draw the slip stitch over the 1
+plain. Knit 5 plain. Turn. Slip 1, purl 25. Turn. Slip 1, knit 3
+plain, knit 2 together, knit 14 plain, slip 1, knit 1 plain, draw the
+slip stitch over the 1 plain, knit 5 plain. Turn. Slip 1, purl 25.
+
+Continue working thus to the end of cap, alternating every time
+each row in same manner as described. When the heel is finished, 26
+stitches must remain on the needle.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 10. HEEL.]
+
+_Heel No. 10._—This heel is knitted partly in rounds with the front
+of the foot, and partly by itself in rows. Divide the stitches evenly
+on 4 needles, and knit in rounds with a fifth needle. After every
+2 rounds “make 1,” just before knitting the first of the stitches
+belonging to the heel, and “make 1” after having knitted them. Repeat
+this 13 times.
+
+This done, begin the cap of the heel. Put on a special needle the 12
+middle stitches (6 on each side of the seam stitch), and knit these
+in _rows_, forward and backward, until 16 rows have been worked.
+Narrow at the end of each of these rows, in knitting the last stitch
+of the row together with the first of the remaining stitches on the
+next needle, then knit the following stitch and turn.
+
+Knit 16 rows more without narrowing, but at the end of each row knit
+1 of the stitches remaining on the next needle, and then turn to knit
+the following row.
+
+When this is done, continue to knit in rows, and narrow again at the
+end of each row by knitting the last stitch of each row together with
+one of the remaining stitches on the next needle; then turn and knit
+the following row. When the remaining stitches have all been narrowed
+into the heel, then begin to knit the foot in rounds.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 11. HEEL.]
+
+_Heel No. 11._—To work this heel, knit a flap of a good length in
+rows, backward and forward. Then put on a special needle the 22
+stitches in the center, 11 on each side of the seam stitch, and knit
+these in rows, backward and forward. In every _plain_ row knit the
+4th and 5th stitches together, and then the 19th and 20th stitches
+together. At the end of _every row_ knit 1 of the remaining stitches.
+When all these remaining stitches have been worked, then pick up the
+side stitches of the flap, and the heel is finished.
+
+
+HOW TO KNIT THE TOE OF A STOCKING.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 12. TOE.]
+
+No. 12.—This toe is worked as follows: Narrow after every 7 stitches,
+in the first round to be narrowed. Then knit 7 rounds plain. Narrow
+in the following round after every 6 stitches. Knit 6 rounds plain.
+Narrow in the next round after every 5 stitches. Knit 5 rounds plain.
+Continue working in such manner, always knitting 1 stitch less
+between the narrowings in every new round which is to be narrowed,
+and always knitting after every round narrowed the same number of
+plain rounds as the number of stitches knitted between the narrowings
+of this last round narrowed.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 13. TOE.]
+
+No. 13.—Before beginning to decrease this toe, divide the stitches
+evenly on 4 needles. Then narrow at the beginning of every needle;
+slip the first stitch, knit the next one, and draw the slipped stitch
+over the knitted one. After _each_ of the first 4 narrowed rounds
+knit 4 rounds plain. After _each_ of the next 4 narrowed rounds knit
+3 rounds plain. After _each_ of the following 4 narrowed rounds knit
+2 rounds plain, and after _each_ of the following 4 narrowed rounds
+knit 1 round plain. Then continue to narrow at the beginning of every
+needle to end of toe.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 14. TOE.]
+
+No. 14.—The narrowing of this toe is done as follows: Divide equally
+on 4 needles the number of stitches. Then begin the first round of
+narrowing by purling 2 together at the beginning of every needle.
+This round is followed by 4 rounds plain. In all the narrowing
+rounds that follow the first one, decrease once on each side of
+the preceding narrowing. After every narrowed round knit 4 rounds
+plain. Knit in all, 11 narrowing rounds. Then finish off the toe
+by narrowing only once at the end of _each_ needle, by slipping 1
+stitch, knitting the next, and drawing the slipped stitch over the
+knitted one.
+
+
+TO RENEW THE HEEL AND SOLE OF STOCKINGS KNITTED BY HAND.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 15. POSITION OF NEEDLES TO RENEW A STOCKING HEEL.]
+
+[Illustration: NO. 16. THE FASTENING OF THE NEW HEEL.]
+
+Illustrations 15 to 18 show the manner of doing this. To renew the
+heel of a stocking, first remove the damaged heel by cutting along
+the sides of the heel, at the end of the cap and at the beginning of
+the heel. Make even the stitches belonging to the parts from which
+the heel has just been cut. Take up these stitches on 5 needles,
+as illustrated in cut No. 15. Take up on 2 needles the stitches
+belonging to the heel. Then take up the side stitches (each side) on
+1 needle. The remaining stitches belong to the fifth needle, that is,
+those which will serve for the joining of the cap of the heel. Then,
+with the stitches belonging to the heel, begin to knit the heel in
+rows, to and fro. But, at the end of every plain row, always knit the
+last stitch of the row together (plain) with the next stitch on the
+side needle. The same must be done at the end of every purled row,
+only the last stitch with the next stitch on the side needle have to
+be _purled_ together, instead of knitted plain. When the heel has
+reached the required length, then begin to knit the cap of the heel
+in the usual way, until the number of stitches corresponds to the
+number of stitches of the fifth needle. Join these 2 rows of stitches
+together, as illustrated in cut No. 16. This is done by darning. Take
+an end of the cotton long enough for this purpose, and pass it, by
+means of a darning needle, downward through the last stitch of the
+stocking, and through the first one of the stitches on the fifth
+needle, or upper row. Then pass it through the next 2 corresponding
+stitches of the cap of the heel. See illustration No. 17, which shows
+the needle inserted in the 2 stitches through which the cotton is to
+be drawn. Pass the needle through the next 2 corresponding stitches
+of the upper row, in the same direction as is shown by the arrow in
+illustration No. 17. From there * pass it through the last stitch,
+already worked, of the lower row, and through next stitch; then
+through the next 2 corresponding stitches of the upper row. Slip
+every time the stitch from the knitting needle after having passed
+the cotton through them. Repeat from * until all the stitches of
+the 2 rows are joined to each other. When this is done, fasten the
+cotton on the wrong side of the stocking by drawing it through a few
+stitches.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 17. STITCH FOR THE FASTENING OF A NEW HEEL.]
+
+Illustration No. 17 represents only a part of the joining, where the
+stitches are worked very loosely, in order that it might be copied
+more easily. Yet, while working, the stitches of the joining must
+be drawn to the same size as the knitted stitches of the stocking,
+and in such a manner that the joining cannot be detected from the
+knitting.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 18. RE-SOLING THE FOOT OF A STOCKING.]
+
+No. 18—_How to Re-sole the Foot of a Stocking_.—In order to do
+this, a new heel must first be knitted to the stocking in the usual
+way. When this is done, pick up the side stitches of the heel and
+begin to knit the sole in _rows_, to and fro, 1 row plain, the other
+purled. At the end of every plain row pick up the last stitch of the
+_corresponding_ row of the old sole, and knit it together, plain,
+with the last stitch of row just knitted. The same thing must be done
+at the end of every purled row, only purl the 2 stitches together
+instead of knitting them plain together. Always slip, plain, the
+first stitch of every row.
+
+The narrowing of the sole, on both sides, must be done just before
+knitting together the last stitch of the row and the last stitch of
+the corresponding row of the old sole.
+
+After the new sole has been knitted, turn the stocking on the wrong
+side; cut off the old sole along both sides, yet leaving a strip of
+4 stitches in width on each side. Lay each strip towards the front
+part of the foot. Unravel them. Smooth down the ends formed by the
+unraveling, and fasten them to the stocking by darning over them
+lightly, so that this darning might not be seen on the right side of
+the stocking. Should the stocking require a new toe to be knitted on,
+then unravel the old one, pick up the stitches and knit a new toe in
+rounds, in one of the ways already described in the book.
+
+
+HOW TO DARN STOCKINGS.
+
+The darning of a stocking can be done in different ways. The way most
+generally adopted is that of cross-work darning, which looks very
+well when neatly worked. But the darning in imitation of the knitted
+stitch, although more tedious, is preferable; for, when it is well
+worked, it cannot be told from the knitting, except on the wrong side.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 19. CROSS-WORK DARNING.]
+
+No. 19—_Cross-Work Darning_.—Trim neatly the place which is to be
+darned, then work a foundation of threads length-wise across the
+opening, as is shown in illustration No. 19. This done, begin to darn
+across this foundation, in rows, to and fro, by taking up every other
+thread of the foundation. In every following row take up the thread
+which was not taken up in the preceding row. See illustration No.
+19. The darning must be prolonged to a little distance on each side
+of the original opening.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 20. DARNING IN IMITATION OF KNITTED STITCH.]
+
+No. 20—_To Imitate the Knitted Stitch in Darning_.—This work requires
+careful preparation. Loosen the damaged part, above and below it,
+in the width, in such a way that there will remain 2 even rows of
+perfect loose stitches. The first and last stitches of the upper
+row must correspond to those of the lower row. Cut the damaged
+part through the middle. Fold each half back upon the inside of
+the stocking, where it will have to be trimmed and fastened. Work
+a foundation of threads across the opening, width-wise, inserting
+each thread into the second stitch from the edge of the opening, and
+making it correspond with every knitted row. See illustration No. 20.
+
+Then work on this foundation as follows: Place the darning cotton
+at the left, pass the darning needle downward under the lowest of
+the threads of foundation, and pull gently the darning cotton, so
+as to form the half of a stitch. Work in same manner on the other
+foundation threads. After making the half stitch upon the top thread
+of foundation, pass the needle through the nearest upper stitch of
+the stocking. Turn the work. Place the darning cotton towards the
+right. Pass the needle downward, under the top thread of foundation,
+draw the cotton lightly, and in this way the first whole stitch will
+be formed. Continue to work in same manner on the foundation threads,
+until the entire work is done.
+
+Illustrations 21 to 23 show a different way of imitating the knitted
+plain stitch in darning.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 21. FOUNDATION FOR NO. 22.]
+
+To darn after this method, remove the damaged part and prepare the
+opening for foundation threads in same manner as already described
+in preceding number. Take for foundation thread a cotton finer than
+the one with which the darning stitches have to be worked. Work the
+foundation threads _length-wise_ on the wrong side of the stocking,
+as shown in illustration No. 21. This done, turn the stocking on the
+right side and begin the darning in imitation of the knitted stitch.
+Work width-wise, as follows:
+
+Pass the darning needle through the upper 2 stitches, as shown in
+illustration No. 22, then pass it, in the direction of the arrow,
+under the next 2 threads of foundation. Insert the needle into the
+last stitch, through which it has already passed, and pass it through
+the stitch next to it. Then pass it under the next 2 corresponding
+threads of foundation. Continue working in like manner. When the end
+of the row is reached, work in same stitch over the next 3 stitches
+of the knitting.
+
+[Illustration: NO. 22. FORMATION OF THE DARNING STITCHES ON
+FOUNDATION NO. 21.]
+
+After working over the third stitch, insert the needle downward—along
+the part which is not yet darned—into the upper part of that
+third stitch, take up the cross bar of the stitch and draw the
+cotton through. Then turn the work from left to right and begin
+the next row. When the work has come down to the lower edge of
+the opening, work the last row in the usual way; but, instead of
+passing the needle under the foundation threads, pass it through the
+corresponding stitches of this edge, as is shown in illustration No.
+23.
+
+When the darning is done, withdraw carefully the foundation threads.
+Trim the damaged part on the wrong side of the stocking, and fasten
+it neatly, as already stated in directions No. 20.

+The Carpet may be knitted in pieces of any size and sewn together. If

+The best results are obtained by using Oriental Wool, Smyrna
+Cotton and designs manufactured expressly for the purpose and
+lately introduced into this market by Messrs. H. Taylor & Co., of
+Philadelphia. Rugs knitted from these materials are as beautiful and
+serviceable as the real Oriental Carpets, and, if well done, cannot
+be distinguished from them.
