+for about fifty years, proves that it has answered a
+general want; and it is with pleasure that I offer the
+present edition, in a carefully revised form, to learners
+and workers of knitting.</p>
+
+<p>The additional Scale of Measurements will be found
+a useful guide to anyone who may be working with
+finer wool and pins—and consequently with more
+stitches—than the directions give.</p>
+
+<p>Pins No. 14, Chambers’ bell-gauge, and any wool
+about the thickness of Berlin fingering, are suitable
+for working these patterns.</p>

+<p><i>Q.</i> <span class="smcap">What</span> is the first thing you do in
+knitting a stocking?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I cast on the stitches.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you cast on the stitches?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I take the worsted that is on the ball
+in the right hand, and twist it once round the
+little finger, pass it under the two next, and
+bring it over the fore-finger, and take the
+needle between the finger and thumb.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What next?</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_10">{10}</span></p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I take the <i>end</i> of the worsted in the
+left hand, twist it round the little finger, bring
+it over the thumb and round the two fore-fingers,
+to form a loop.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What do you do then?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I put the needle under the lower
+worsted of the loop, and bring it above that
+which goes over the fore-finger.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What do you do with the worsted
+which is over the fore-finger of the right hand?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I pass it under the needle, bring the
+needle <i>down</i> through the loop, and draw the
+worsted in the left hand tight; which finishes
+the stitch.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many stitches do you cast on
+each needle for a stocking of seventy-three
+stitches to fit a child of five?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Twenty-four on two needles, and
+twenty-five on the third.&#x2060;<a id="FNanchor_1_1" href="#Footnote_1_1" class="fnanchor">[1]</a></p>
+
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_11">{11}</span></p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> Is there any reason for there being an
+odd stitch on one needle?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Yes: there must always be an odd
+stitch on one needle, for the seam.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What do you do when you have cast
+on the stitches?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I begin to knit.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you make the knitting stitch?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I put the needle through the stitch,
+turn the worsted over the needle, take up the
+worsted I turned over, and let off the under
+loop.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many rounds do you knit <i>plain</i>?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> One.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you fasten in the end of the
+worsted?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I knit it in with the three first stitches.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What next?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I knit six rounds <i>ribbed</i>.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> Why do you knit six rounds ribbed?</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_12">{12}</span></p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> To prevent the top of the stocking
+from curling.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you form the ribs?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> By knitting three stitches plain, and
+turning three.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you make a <i>purl</i> stitch?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I bring the worsted before the needle,
+and instead of putting the needle over the
+upper worsted I put it under.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What is the next thing you do?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I begin the seam.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you make the seam?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> By purling the stitch every second
+round.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> Which is the seam stitch?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> The first stitch on the first needle.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many rounds must you have
+before you begin narrowing?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Eighty.</p>
+
+<p><span class="pagenum" id="Page_13">{13}</span></p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you fasten on a fresh piece of
+worsted?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> By reversing the ends upon each other,
+and knitting six stitches with the worsted
+thus doubled.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> If a stitch be dropped, and you do not
+discover it till you have gone one round, how
+do you take it up?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I take the stitch that is dropped with
+the right needle, and put it on the left; then
+take up the loop at the back, put it over the
+left needle, and cast the stitch over it.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> If the stitch has been dropped for
+many rounds, how do you take it up?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I take it up on a spare needle, pass
+the needle under the lowest loop, and cast
+the stitch over the loop, then take up the next
+loop as before, till they are all taken up.</p>

+ <i>Narrowing.</i>
+ </h2>
+</div>
+
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you narrow?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I slip one, knit one, and pass the
+slipped stitch over the knitted one before the
+seam, and knit two together after the seam,
+leaving one stitch on each side between the
+seam and the narrowing.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many times do you narrow, to
+form the calf?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Eight times.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many rounds do you leave
+between the narrowings?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I narrow every third purl stitch, which
+leaves five rounds between.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many rounds do you make after
+the last narrowing before you begin the heel?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Thirty-six.</p>

+
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you begin the heel?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I divide the stitches in half, leaving
+the seam stitch for the middle of the heel.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> Do you knit the heel like the rest of
+the stocking?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> No; I knit it in rows, and every row
+on the inside of the heel must be purl stitches.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How long do you make the heel?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Twenty-four rows.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you finish the heel?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I knit the nine middle stitches in rows,
+like the heel, taking up one of the others
+with the last stitch of every row till they are
+all taken off.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many needles do you use?</p>

+ <i>The Foot.</i>
+ </h2>

+
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you begin the foot?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> By taking up the stitches at the sides
+of the heel on the second row.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many stitches do you take up
+for the foot?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Sixteen on each side of the heel.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What do you do next?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I narrow every second round on each
+side of the instep till the number is even with
+the ankle.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many narrowings do you make?</p>

+<p><i>A.</i> Seven on each side.</p>

+
+<p><i>A.</i> Fifty-six.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How many rounds do you make between
+the heel and toe narrowings?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Twenty-eight.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you begin the toe?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> By narrowing twice at each side,
+leaving two stitches only between; this decreases
+four stitches.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How often do you narrow?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> Twice, leaving three rounds between,
+twice leaving two, twice leaving one, then
+every round till I have sixteen stitches left.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> How do you finish?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I put the two needles that have the
+stitches on them together.</p>
+
+<p><i>Q.</i> What next?</p>
+
+<p><i>A.</i> I take a stitch from each, and knit
+them together. When two stitches are done
+in this way, I cast the first over the last, and
+so on till they are all taken off.</p>
