Purled Knitting.</span></figcaption> +</figure> + +<p>To <i>Pearl</i>, <i>Purl</i> or <i>Seam</i>, (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.</p> + +<p><i>How to Repair a Stitch which has been Half Knitted, or +Dropped while Knitting.</i>—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.</p> + +<p><i>To Increase.</i>—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.</p> + +<p><i>To Slip a Stitch</i> is to take a stitch off the left needle and +to <i>slip</i> it on to the right needle without knitting.</p> + +<p>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 <i>purl</i>, the first stitch must be slipped off as if it +were plain knitting; if it is a row of <i>plain</i> knitting, slip the +first stitch off as if it were purl knitting.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_8">[8]</span></p> + +<p><i>How to Narrow.</i>—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.</p> + +<p><i>Casting Off</i> 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.</p> + +<p><i>The Joining of Ends</i> 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.</p> + + +<h3><span class="smcap">Lady’s Stocking.</span></h3> + +<p>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.</p> + +<p>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.</p> + +<p>This stocking is knitted, with a double border, as follows:</p> + +<p>Cast on 152 stitches on 3 needles. After having cast +on the last stitch, close the round by knitting the <i>first</i> stitch +cast on.</p> + +<p>Knit 16 rounds plain.</p> + +<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_9">[9]</span></p> + +<p>17th Round.—* Slip 1, knit 1, draw the slip stitch over +the knitted stitch, make 1; repeat from * to end of round.</p> + +<p>18th to 34th Rounds, inclusive.—Knit plain.</p> + +<p>Then fold in half the piece knitted, so that the 17th round +will form the edge of the border.</p> + +<p>Pick up on other knitting needles the stitches of the 1st +round, <i>i. e.</i>, 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.</p> + +<p>Then knit plain until the leg of the stocking is twelve +inches long. In the first round of <i>this</i> 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.</p> + +<p>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 <i>rows</i>, +making the seam stitches as usual.</p> + +<p>When knitting backward, purl <i>all</i> 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.</p> + +<p>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.</p> + +<p>2d Row.—Slip 1, 3 plain, 2 purl (seam stitches), 2 plain, +knit 2 together, 1 plain. Turn.</p> + +<p>3d Row.—Slip 1, purl 8 (including seam stitches), purl 2 +together, purl 1.

Turn.</p> + +<p>5th Row.—Slip 1, purl 10 (seam stitch included), purl 2 +together, purl 1. Turn.</p> + +<p>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.</p> + +<p>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.</p> + +<p>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.

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 <i>purled</i> together, +instead of knitted plain. +When the heel has reached the<span class="pagenum" id="Page_15">[15]</span> +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.
