[106-*] See Contents--Double Knitting. For a blanket it is better
to put the wool twice round the needle in the knitted stitches.

_Netted Lace._

Begin on a straight foundation with a mesh No. 16. Of course the
number of stitches will depend on the length that is wished for.
216 will make about a yard.

Net 24 plain rows. Take a mesh 1/4 of an inch wide, or a trifle wider,
net 3 stitches in the 1st stitch, pass 2 stitches, net 5 stitches in the
next, pass 2, and net 5 stitches in every 3rd stitch to the end of the
row. Take the small mesh and net every stitch you have increased as a
single stitch, and finish with another row on the small mesh.

_Puff Netting._

Very pretty for caps.

Begin your netting on a foundation that will divide by 10. Net 9
stitches, net 9 stitches in the 10th; repeat to the end of the row. Net
3 rows, 1 stitch in _every_ stitch. In the next row (which will make the
5th from the increase), take the first 9 stitches as 1 stitch, net the
following 9 stitches, repeat to the end of the row. Begin again.

_A Cool Night-cap._

Puff netting.

The mesh to be 1/4 inch wide.

Begin on a round foundation of 71 stitches; net 3 plain rounds. In the
4th round, net 5 stitches, net 5 stitches in the 6th stitch; repeat this
all round. Net 2 rounds, netting one stitch in _every_ stitch. In the
next round take the 5 plain stitches as _one_, net 5 stitches, repeat
all round. Begin again with the 4th round (increasing 5 stitches after
the decrease). When the cap is deep enough net one round putting the
cotton twice round the mesh; run a ribbon in at the top and bottom, and
tie the top string tight.

_Suspenders._

Two needles No. 16.

Cast on 18 stitches, and knit about 6 rows in double knitting with the
thread once round the needle, knit 9 stitches, take off the other 9 on
another needle, and knit the first 9 backwards and forwards until it is
long enough for a button-hole; take back the cotton and knit up the
other 9 until both are even, (the loop which is left from carrying the
thread down can be sewn in afterwards); knit 6 more rows double
knitting, and 2 rows double knitting with the thread twice round the
needle. Knit 1 row of plain knitting, increasing 1 stitch in every 2,
which will make in all 27. Then in the front row; knit the 2nd stitch
first, drawing it over the 1st, knit the 1st, knit the 4th and 3rd, 6th
and 5th, and repeat the sam
