knit two together; knit
nine.

_Twelfth row_--cast off all but seven; knit four; turn over, knit two
together; knit one.

This finishes the first vandyke.--Commence again, as at third row.

A warm Half-square Shawl.

Four-thread fleecy, or eight-thread Zephyr fleecy, of two colours, say
rose and white.--No. 8 needles.

Cast on one stitch, rose colour, and increase at the beginning of every
other row, until there are ten stitches on the needle. In the next
row--knit seven stitches for the border, which is throughout in plain
knitting; join on the white wool, and pearl three, increasing on the
last stitch.

In the next row--bring the wool forward, slip one; knit two, pass the
slipped stitch over them; knit the remaining white stitch plain; knit
the seven stitches for the border, twisting the two colours in the
changing of them.

In the next row--knit the seven stitches for the border; pearl the
white, increasing at the end as before.

Repeat the two last rows, which comprise the whole pattern, until the
shawl is of the required size, and finish with the plain knitted border,
to correspond with the other side.

N.B. In the fancy row of the white, when uneven stitches occur at the
end of the row, they are to be knitted plain.

A warm Double Knitted Scarf, in Two Colours.

Cast on thirty-six stitches in blue six-thread fleecy.--No. 2 needles.

_First row_--bring the wool forward, slip one; pass the wool back, knit
one, turning the wool twice round the needle.--Repeat to the end of the
row.

Each succeeding row is the same, observing that the knit-stitch always
comes over the slip-stitch.

It will require seven rows of blue, seven of white, seven of blue,
thirty-eight of white, seven of blue, seven of white, and seven of blue.

Cast off and draw up the ends. Finish with blue and white tassels.

A Border for a Shawl or Quilt.

This border should be knitted separate, with the same sized needles and
wool as the shawl or quilt, and afterwards sewn on.

Cast on any even number of stitches.

_First row_--Bring the wool forward, knit two together.

_Second row_--plain knitting.

Repeat these two rows alternately.

knit two stitches together.
