2 plain stitches
followed by: * 1 double treble joined to the upper part of the 1st
stitch of the 1st row; keep the 2 last loops of this treble on the
needle; make a double over for the next treble, pass the needle through
the fourth stitch of the first row, make an over, turn the thread round
the needle, bring it back, finish the treble all but the last 3 loops,
which you crochet together. Miss the stitch behind the treble, make 3
plain stitches and repeat from *.
[Illustration: FIG. 429. RAISED STITCH, WITH CROSSED TREBLES.]
Then turn the work, make one plain row, and turn the work back to the
right side.
The second row of trebles begins with a plain stitch. The way in which
the trebles are to be crossed is shewn in the illustration.
RAISED STITCH WITH DOTS (fig. 430).--After making 3 plain rows, begin
the 4th with 3 plain stitches, and proceed as follows: * 6 trebles into
the 4th plain stitch of the preceding row, leaving the last loop of each
treble on the needle, so that altogether you have 7 loops upon it; then
you turn the thread once round the needle and draw it through the loops;
miss the stitch that is underneath the dot, make 3 plain stitches and
repeat from *.
[Illustration: FIG. 430. RAISED STITCH WITH DOTS.]
Then make 3 rows of plain stitches; in the 4th row, the 1st dot is made
in the 4th stitch, so that the dots stand out in relief.
RAISED DOTS WITH TREBLES (fig. 431).--Turn the work after making 3
rows of plain stitches, make 3 stitches more in the 4th stitch of the
1st row, * 6 trebles, drop the last stitch of the 6th treble, put the
needle into the stitch between the last plain stitch and the 1st treble,
take the dropped loop of the last treble and draw it through the one on
the needle; miss the stitch under the dot, make 5 plain stitches and
repeat from *.
[Illustration: FIG. 431. RAISED DOTS WITH TREBLES.]
RAISED DOTS IN SLANTING LINES (fig. 432).--On the rows of stitches
that have been previously prepared, make, for the 4th stitch of the 4th
row, a cluster stitch, as in fig. 426, with 1 quadruple over and then 4
plain stitches, 1 cluster stitch and so on. The next row is plain; in
the second you have to make 1 plain stitch more, and fasten the cluster
stitches into the loops to the left of the second of the 3 covered rows.
In this way you have to make each raised stitch, one stitch, in advance
and to the left of the last, so that they run in slanting lines over the
surface.
