PREFACE.

■♦•»

Home Work is a useful book. It is published with the hope that it will prove a pleasure and a help in very many homes.

Home Work contains a great variety of choice designs for the crochet and knitting needle, and some valuable recipes for the toilet. Some of the crochet and knitting patterns are very simple, and some as elaborate as could be desired. All are useful, and each has an attractive- ness of its own.

An earnest effort has been made to avoid erroi*s in the preparation of the material for this work, and it is be- lieved that a fair measure of success has crowned the labors of all concerned in its publication. It is certainly the most elaborate book of the kind ever placed before the ladies of this country ; full of good things, artistic, ornamental, a convenient volume, a lasting joy.

Home Work is not put forth as a guide to the art of crocheting and knitting, but as a companion for those who love to crochet and knit. It does not teach the rudiments of needle work, but it comes to aid and delight

IV

PREFACE.

those who, having learned that pretty stitches may be made with the crochet or knitting needle, desire to go on to the accomplishment of something artistic and useful. Directions are given for making the narrowest edging, and the fuD-sizod counterpane, the most intricate laces and the simplest trimming. The designs for the various articles of wearing apparel will be found, it is believed, especially acceptable. It may be well to remind the reader that if difficulties are met with in the working of any of the patterns, the necessary assistance may be obtained by referring to the directions at the commence- ment of each part, where the abbreviations used through- out the book and the method of making a great variety of stitches are fully explained.

The recipes contained in Home Work do not belong to the book proper, but they are added because they can be recommended, in the hope that they will take the place on the toilet table of injurious articles, and for the fur- ther reason that they will prove the saving of many dollars to those who have not the money to throw away on expensive preparations.

Afg'han or Tricot Stitch.

The crochet needle must be a rather long one, of bone, the same size from end to end. Make a chain as for any crochet. Suppose we say 17. At the end, turn and work back on the chain thus : Put your needle through the 15th loop, the one next but one to the last of the chain, and drawing the wool through, leave the stitch on the needle ; with this and the 17th stitch of the chain, you will have two stitches on the needle. Put the needle through the next stitch of the chain, and drawing the wool through, leave that loop also on the needle. Go to the end of the chaio, thus, and you will have 16 stitches on your needle. In making a chain for crochet tricot, you must always make one more stitch than the number which the work is to have, so as to have a neat turn at the end. At the end of the 1st row, having all the stitches on the needle, take up the wool with the hook, and draw it through the 1st stitch only, then catching the wool up again, draw it through the stitch just made, and the next stitch on needle ; then through the stitch just made and the next stitch, and so on to the end of the row, when only one stitch is left on the needle. Next row Put the hook through the 1st perpendicular stitch of the preceding row, draw the wool through, leaving the stitch thus made on the needle. Go •to the end of the row thus; drawing the wool through each perpendicular stitch of the preceding row, and leaving all stitches thus made on the needle ; then work back as in the 2nd row. This stitch is also called Victoria, Tunif! and Tricot.

To Make a Pompom.

Place two nails in a board about 36 inches apart. Over these nails pass the strands of wool evenly until you have it thick enough to make the pompoms the required size. (From 30 to 50 strands will be necessary.) Then take silk or wool and tie around these strands as tightly as possible, at distances from one to two inches apart, and the wool tied over these first tyings is to pass from ball to ball as they are cut.

Cut the strands between each of the tyings, comb out and round off nicely with the scissors and steam by holding over boiling water. Any ends standing out must be cut off closely.

Zephyr Plumes.

Wind the wool over the 2 fore-fingers of the left hand 12 time;}, and catch the wool firmly with the ch. st, make 1 more ch. i)t. tight, then wind the wool 12 times more and catch as before.

Proceed in this way until you have as many of these tufts as you require, then sew them upon the article they are in- tended for, arranging them like plumes.

A Word of Advice.

In crotcheting hold your needle and wool as lightly as pos* sibla Hold your needle in your right hand, but keep it free from everything else ; do not even allow the fingers of this hand to rest upon the work.

Do not wear tight sleeves or finger rings ; have your arms free.

Do not wind wool-^ase it from the skein ; but if you must wind it, do not make it into a ball, but wind it softly and light* ly from the thumb to the little finger of the left hand.
