ANTI-MACASSAR.

MATERIALS.--Brooks' Great Exhibition Prize Goat's-head Crochet Cotton,
No. 24.

This anti-macassar must be begun on the line of d.c., forming one end.
Make a chain of the required number of stitches, including the
borders, and work the whole anti-macassar, except the border which is
at the one end, below the foundation chain, which must be done last of
all. Or the centre can be done entirely first, and the border worked
all round afterwards, increasing at the corners. We, however,
recommend the former method.

This pattern is extremely well adapted for darning on square netting.
In that case the netting may be done in Brooks' Knitting Cord, No. 60,
and the darning in Embroidery Cotton, No. 70. The centre only can be
done thus--a netted border must trim it.

of an inch wide.

This anti-macassar is done in the fashionable style of netting, with a
pattern darned on it after it is worked. Make a foundation, on which
