DESIGN FOR A CORNER OR SQUARE OF DARNED NET.
A very pretty design, as simple as it is effective, is here represented.
According to the purpose for which the work is intended, and the color
of the net selected, the darning may be done in cotton, linen or silk,
and in white, black, ecru or colors. The pattern may be modified in any
way pleasing to the taste, or diversified by the introduction of
portions of other designs or individual ideas.

BORDER FOR DARNED NET.
A pretty border for tidies, draperies, flounces, yokes, collars or any
article requiring a border is here illustrated. Any of the suggestions
given above may be adopted in making this border, which may be used
separately or in combination with other borders, according to individual
taste. Gold thread upon black or white net would, in this design, result
in a very effective dress decoration.

DESIGN FOR DARNED NET.
This pretty pattern may be used as a border, insertion or stripe for
personal or household articles, and is one of the most popular designs
in use. It is very easy to follow and is illustrated full size. It might
be used to border the lower edge of a wide flounce for a petticoat, or,
with equal propriety, applied to a tidy or a window drapery, providing
the worker regulates the size of the design appropriately for the work
in hand. For window draperies it would need to be much broader and
larger in other ways than as represented.

EDGING OF DARNED NET.
The design here presented is of full size, and very easy to work. A
dainty edge in button-hole stitch is worked for the border, and the net
is afterward cut out to form the tiny scallops. This is a pretty pattern
for neck and wrist frills, jabots or ruffles, or for the adornment of
kerchiefs for the neck or pockets, or for any purpose for which lace
edging is selected.
