tration points to the direction for working the next.

[Illustration: 466.--- Plain Venetian Bars.]

No. 467.--BARS OF POINT D'ANGLETERRE.--These bars may be worked singly
or to fill up a space, as in illustration. Work rosettes as in point
d'Angleterre, page 461; when each rosette is finished twist the thread
up the foundation thread to the top, fasten with one stitch, then pass
it under the parallel line running through the centre and over into the
opposite braid; repeat on each side of each rosette, inserting the
threads as in illustration.

[Illustration: 467.--Bars of Point d'Angleterre.]

No. 468.--POINT DE VENISE BARS (EDGED).--Begin at the right hand and
stretch a line of thread to the left side of the braid, fastening it
with one tight stitch of point de Bruxelles. Upon this line work a
succession of tight point de Bruxelles stitches. In every third stitch
work one point de Venise stitch.

[Illustration: 468.--Point de Venise Bars (Edged).]

No. 469.--We now come to the most important feature of BARS--the _dot,
picot_, or _purl_, for by all these names it is known. This dot is
worked in various ways upon different lace bars. Dotted point de Venise
bars are worked as follow:--

[Illustration: 469.--Dotted Point de Venise Bars.]

Stretch the thread from right to left, on this work five tight stitches
of point de Bruxelles, then insert a pin in this last stitch to hold it
open and loose, pass the needle under the loose stitch and over the
thread, as clearly shown in illustration No. 469, and in this loop work
three tight point de Bruxelles stitches. Then work five more stitches,
and repeat to end of row.

[Illustration: 470.--Picot or Dot on Sorrento Bar.]

No. 470 shows a dot or picot upon a Sorrento bar worked between rows of
point de Bruxelles, three twisted stitches being worked into the loop
left by the twisted thread; this forms a picot resembling satin stitch
in appearance.

Nos. 471 and 472.--RALEIGH BARS are worked over a foundation or network
of coarse thread, twisted in places so as to more easily fall into the
desired form.

By following the numbering from No. 1 to 21, in No. 472, a square place
may be easily filled, and portions of this arrangement applied to form
groundwork of any shape desired. Upon this groundwork tight point de
Bruxelles stitches are worked, and the dot worked
