The first edition of JJo. 2 of our Crochet Series was necessarily hurried, and issued out of its regular order, in compliance with a very general demand for lambrequin designs. While its success has been gratifying, there were some defects in the work. 1 has decide.! us to re-issue it under iresent brm. It has been carefully re-written , so as t ollow the very full instructions found in J7o. :. The number of designs have been doubled by the addition of some very attractive patterns for lambrequins. Three numbers of the Series have been issued, as follows : No. 1— HOW TO CROCHET. "With full explanations of all Crochet Stitches, and numerous illustrations. No. 2— LAMBREQUIN DESIG-NS.

The use of twine in fancy work has introduced a material that can be employed extensively in house- hold decoration, and has brought the crochet needle into greater requisition than ever before. Many of those articles that contribute so much to the attract- iveness of a home can be made of twine at compara- tively little cost. It can be made in colors and of different sizes, and on account of its durability, cheapness and beauty, is considered by many supe- rior to macrame work. By a judicious selection of shades, and a tasteful combination of trimmings, a large assortment of which are sold for that purpose, consisting of silk and plush balls of various shapes and colors, ribbon, etc., a great variety of articles may be fashioned which are at once both beautiful and effective, such as, for instance, window, mantel, table and brackel labrequins, scarfs for chairs and tables, covers for sofa pillows and ottomans, toilet and dinner mats, hand-bags, etc., etc., etc. DESCRIPTION OF TERMS USED IN CROCHET. Chain Stitch. — Make a loop of twine, and draw the twine through each loop thus made, until the chain is of the required length. Close Chain Stitch. — Insert the hook in loop of preceding row. and draw twine through both this loop and the loop on the needle at the same time. Single Crochet. — Pass the hook through a loop of the last row. bring twine through, throw the twine around the needle and draw it through the two loops on the needle. Double Crochet. — Turn the twine around the needle once, pass the hook through a loop of pre- ceding row. bring twine through, throw the twine around the needle and draw it through two loops, turn the twine again around the needle and draw it through the two next loops. Treble. — Turn the twine twice around the needle. work as double crochet, bringing twine through two loops three rimes. Double Double Crochet. — Turn twine three times around the needle, work as double crochet, bringing twine through two loops four rimes. Slip Stitch. — This stitch is used in joining. Take the hook from the last loop worked, pass it through the loop where the work has to be joined: then take the lirsr loop spoken of and draw ir through. * The above are the primitive or foundation stitches, of which all fancy stitches are modifications or combinations. TWINE. The best twine for crocheting is what is known as seine or macrame cotton twine, and is sold by num- bers ; 6 and 9, the finer numbers, are used for tidies, etc. ; 12, 16 and 20 for lambrequins. Care should be taken in purchasing the twine, to get the best quali- ty, as there are several grades made ; that having a cream color, bordering on ecru, makes the best work. NEEDLES. a five-inch bone needle, even and smooth, is con- sidered the best for crocheting with twine.

The tools for making a hammock are- — first, a " seine needle,'' which may be obtained at any fish- ing-tackle store, and, second, what is called a mesh board. The needle is made of hard wood and of the shape represented in illustration. The mesh board is simply a piece of common wood about 6 inches long by 2 or 2-J- inches wide, according to the size of the mesh desired, and bevelled on one side, being one-half the stretched measure of the mesh. Having provided yourself with the tools as above, proceed as follows : Take a piece of twine a foot or so long and tie the ends together, making a loop on which to knit the first row of meshes, and hang it on a hook or nail ; Then till your needle by tying the end of the twine to the pin in the middle of the needle, and carrying ir around the notch and back to the pin until the needle is full, being careful to turn the needle over every time, so that both sides will be alike. Tie the loose end of twine on the needle to the loop mentioned above, and place the mesh board underneath close to the loop ; then carry the needle down under the board and up through the loop, drawing the twine tight ; place the thumb (the mesh board being held in the left hand) so as to hold the 32 twine in position on the edge of the mesh board, and throw the bight (or slack) of the twine loosely towards the left, and carry the needle under the right side of the loop and up on the left side through the bight, and pull it down snugly. The same operation should be repeated, with the exception of putting the needle betioeen the loop and the bight, as it must be carried through the loop and the bight at the same time. In order to make the knot more secure, it would be well to throw the bight again to the left, and bring the needle up through the loop a second time, thus making the knot double. This suggestion applies to the first row of meshes only. Continue this until you have a sufficient number of meshes for the width of the hammock, 30 being the usual number ; then slip the meshes off the mesh board and allow them to hang from the twine on the needle ; then place the mesh board under- neath, in the same manner as at first, and repeat the original operation, putting the needle through the first mesh instead of the loop, as in the first in- stance, and making the knot as before. (See illus- tration.) Follow the meshes along in the same way. until the hammock is the desired length. It is usual to make it about six feet long when stretched for a full-sized hammock, and then to put on each end strings about two feet long, reaching from each end mesh t«> an iron ring about an inch and a half in diametrr. i<» which the ropes for swinging it are to be attached. These strings can beputoniu Mir same manner :is the meshes are kail by simply sub- stituting ;i piece of board about 2 feel long and 3 or -I inches wide for the mesh board and using it lengl bwise. kPJ^^ G i F "ANCINE CLARK ART INSTITUTE NK9400 .K47t 1883 stack Kerzman, Marie Louise/Twine crochet work 1962 00079 2816
