 Modern Tatting.— The new or Modern Tatting 
 Vrs in general stvle and appearance from that with 
 ich we arc all familiar. The chief charm of the old 
 ing lav in its fmeness, and in the feathery dainti- 
 s lent by the use of many picots ; that of the new 
 rather in its conventionality of design, its dura- 
 bility and its 
 closeiT^ss of 
 texture, 
 whicli ren- 
 der it useful 
 for many 
 p u r p nses 
 for which 
 tlie old was 
 
 it. New materials, stitches, terms, and directions 
 used in the Modern Tatting. 
 
 In stitches, besides those described on page 3. are 
 eral new variations of old stitches. As doiibU- 
 </s: shell ticot. a very loose Josephine knot of live 
 "ches, made with only the shuttle thread, generally 
 the joining of a chain to the row before, but may 
 on other parts of the chain. Slit< stitch, may be 
 lie neatly at the back of the work, with a fine cro- 
 ft-hook, carrying the thread back of stitches or 
 ough them ; by running through cliains ; by sewing. 
 in various other ways to suit the situation. 
 Tn the directions for Tatted Cords, page 28, will 
 found several new cords which may be used in 
 merous ways to furnish pleasing variety and new 
 ures in tatting. 
 
 A worker who well merits tlie title of Lady 
 iperior in the art of Tattins. has given the follow- 
 
 i n g valuable 
 hints, w h i c h 
 will :i (1 d 
 t;reatly to tile 
 perfection of 
 ilie work, if 
 rarried out. 
 
 neater to sew them with very tine thread. 
 
 'if the edge of the work seems too full it will 
 press out flat and look much better than if it must 
 l)c stretched. 
 
 "With a large piece of work it is well to press occa- 
 sionally while making, and all work sliould be th..r- 
 nughly pressed when finished. 
 
 "To press, place the work riglit side down, on flan- 
 nel, pull well into shape with the fingers; with a wet 
 cloth over the work, then a dry cloth, press with 
 quite a hot iron, remove first cloth after a little, 
 continue pressing until work is thoroughly dry." 
 
 The old saying about "tricks in all trades," ap- 
 plies in one sense to tatting. There are so many 
 new ways, makeshifts, and ingenious devices, for 
 gaining dexterity, perfection, and beauty of design. 
 One worker rarely uses the ring, instead laps and 
 joins the chain into a ring, .\nother rarely uses the 
 chain, but says : "Whenever possible I leave a thread 
 and crochet over it. The result is about the same." 
 
 Fig. 3. BF.Ani.NG. See I'.\ge 4 
 
 "In making 
 tatting use a 
 ball and shuttle 
 
 ntinuous thread — unbroken between 
 as much as possible. 
 
 "Slip stitch from one row to another when 
 invenient. 
 
 "When using continuous thread, a second ball for 
 •filling the shuttle will avoid cutting the ball thread. 
 .\fter tying the enils it will often make the work 
 
 .See page 
 
 We hear much of "the new way of tatting," which 
 many have long known as the only way. It is, pass- 
 ing the shuttle between the first and second fingers 
 of the left hand, instead of around the whole hand, and 
 is much more rapid. Full illustrated directions for it are 
 given in Priscilla Tatting Book No. i ; price 25 cents. 
 
 Materials.— Where the words "crochet cotton" 
 are used in the text of this book, the cotton referred 
 to is the hard-twisted cotton known by such names as 
 Cordonnct, Cordonnet Special, Cordichet, Kord-net, 
 etc., which can be purchased wherever needlework sup- 
 plies are sold. 
 
 The numbers of crochet cotton generally used are, 
 for very small edgings, Nos. 70 to 100; other edgings, 
 Nos. 50 and 60, also for other fine work; from Nos. 
 3 to .so for towels, and very coarse work.

 12 small p, 3 d s bet, 5 d s, join each of the remain- 
 ing ps on r. Work sets of 4-4 sts for stem to required 
 length. To avoid ends make the stem first with con- 
 tinuous thread, and work on the rose after stem is 
 made. Sew ends under the rose. 
 
 RosE-BuD. — Begin buds without ends and at cen- 
 tre of point of bud. Leaving p at beginning, work 
 7 sets 4-4 sts with a p at beginning and centre of each 
 set. Centre of bud; leaving a p; 27 d s. join p at 
 beginning of bud; p 27 d s, join p. Work 12 sets 
 4-4 sts, join p left in last row at point of bud, work 
 cluster of 5 long ps, I d s between, join at same p. 
 Work 12 sets 4-4 sts, join at beginning of this row. 
 Work 15 d s, form small loop at base of bud, by 
 joining again in same place. Cross small loop and 
 proceed with stem by sets of 4-4 sts. This makes the 
 largest bud. Smaller ones are made with 6 sets 4-4 
 sts in centre, omitting the picots and working enough 
 d s in first row, and sets of sts in second row, to 
 make the shape desired, leave but 3 long p at end, 
 shape the bud with fingers as made. Make stem of 
 buds and roses from 2 to 4 inches in length. 
 
 Lea\es are begun at centre point of leaf, and made 
 the same as buds, except having but one row around 
 centre stem, and are wholly of sets of stitches and 
 graduated in size to suit. Cut the silk after each leaf. 
 Wind a little silk on shuttle, work leaf and 2 sets 4-4 
 sts after leaf. Cut threads, leaving about 2 inches; 
 wind again for next leaf. Repeat twice; then make 
 6 sets sts for stem. Join a leaf to stem of this one 
 at point of working; work 2 sets over the threads of 
 the added leaf. Add the other leaf to opposite side 
 of stem, and work over those ends in same manner. 
 After a few sets of stitches the loose ends may 
 be cut close to stem, this makes a cluster of leaves.

 Draw the ch close to the sets of sts, and form the 
 first small loop of the neck, by crossing the ch at its 
 beginning, shuttle thread over, ball thread under the 
 ch. Make the lattice ch of 9 sets 4-4 sts, join p left 
 at beginning, drawing the ball thread back firmly. 
 Draw the ball thread between the lattice, and work 
 2 sets 4-4 sts ; draw the ball thread back, which leaves 
 shuttle thread above, ball thread under the work. 
 Cross the long lattice ch 2 sets below the loop for 
 the neck. Work 2 sets 4-4 sts and a loop of 7 ps, 
 as the first. Work another lat- 
 tice ch of 9 sets 4-4 sts, join 
 the first lattice ch of 9 sets, 
 two sets from the last crossing, 
 leaving the threads on opposite 
 sides of the work; work 2 sets 
 4-4 sts, and cross the lattice ch 
 as before. Always in joining 
 over the lattice ch draw the 
 slnittle thread tight, so that the 
 ball thread is double around the 
 ch, and the shuttle thread 
 straight through the joining. 
 Continue until there are 60 of 
 the 7-p loops for the neck of 
 the collar. 
 
 2d row — Work 5 sets 4-4 sts, 
 join the last lattice ch two sets 
 from the last joining. Continue 
 around the lattice edge, joining 
 each 5 sets 4-4 sts to the centre 
 of a lattice scallop of the last 
 row, and keeping the work the 
 same side up. 
 
 Sd row — At the end of the 
 collar carry threads to centre of 
 last scallop of last row, and 
 work back as the row before, 
 but join with the shuttle thread. 
 4th row — Divide the lattice- 
 work into 5 parts of 10 scallops 
 at each end, 11 scallops to the 
 3, in order to leave one scallop 
 between the points. Work each 
 
 
to a point, working liack and forth as before; carry- 
 ing threads to centre of last scallop, to leave one 
 less on each row. Cut and sew threads at linish of 
 each point.

 p of lirst small loop at the neck; work 5 sets 4-4 sts, 
 join 2d p, opposite side of same loop, I d s, join 2d p 
 of next loop; continue around neck. The points be- 
 ing linished, baste the lattice-work on the pattern 
 right side down, firmly at the neck, leaving the other 
 edge free, press the points out smoothly. On the 
 pattern it will keep the shape better while joining 
 
 6 d s, join. Repeat around the 5 points, with an added 
 scallop and two joinings at points, and skipping the 
 extra square between points. 
 
 2d rozv around points — Join last ch of 7 p to last 
 lattice square : carry threads to centre p of ch last made, 
 work back around points w'ith chs of 4 sets 4-4 sts, 
 with a p in centre, and join at centre ps of last rows. 
 Continue around the points, with an added ch at each 
 point, and skipping the scallops between points, as in

 Motif Between the Front Points. (See Fig. 37.) 
 —The clover leaf (c 1) is made of a small p and 1.3 
 sets 4-4 sts, form loop crossing l d s from beginning. 
 Ch IS sets 4-4 sts, cross one set from first loop; re- 
 peat first loop, and work 3 sets for stem. Ch 3 d s, p, 
 t d s, reverse; 3 d s, 12 p 2 d s bet, reverse; 12 d s, 
 join by ball thread to p after first 3 d s. This makes 
 
 15 
 
the first reversed petal. Work 5 d s. p, i il s, reverse 
 and proceed with second petal. Join the 4th p to last 
 p of petal before. Join between 4th and 5th petals to 
 the c 1. After three more petals, ch 3 d s, join centre 
 petal of c 1, 3 d s, and continue with the seven petals 
 reversed, as shown in Fig. 37. Join the first reversed 
 petal at the top to the petal before. After last petal, 
 ch 3 d s and join stem of c 1. 
 
 Row around the motif — This joins to points on 
 the collar. Work 12 sets 4-4 sts, join 2 ch between 
 points of the collar, by ball thread. Work 12 sets 
 more, join where this ch began. Work 7 sets, join 
 2d ch from last joining, 4 sets, join nth p on first 
 petal and 5th p on second petal together. Work 4 sets, 
 join second scallop from last joining, 3 sets and join 
 next two petals. Continue around motif with scal- 
 lops of 7 sets, and join collar as on the first side. 
 
 Motif Between the Back Points. — Work p, 6 
 d s, p, ID d s, reverse; 2 d s, 10 p 2 d s bet, join 1st p; 
 making the first petal. Reverse, 6 d s, p 12 d s, re- 
 verse; 12 p 2 d s between, join p, making the second 
 petal. Make a third petal with 14 plain d s and 14 p. 
 Work 6 d s, p, 4 d s, then 25 p, 3 d s; form a long 
 loop, crossing ch just past the single p. Make the 
 large loop of 12 d s, 35 P, 4 d s; cross ch 4 d s before 
 1st p. The other long loop repeats the first, reversed. 
 Make three petals as the first three, reversed. x\fter 
 last petal make 6 d s, join p at beginning. 
 
 Row around motif — Work 9 sets 4-4 sts, join; (on 
 the inside of the motif) to p at close of the first 
 long side loop; 3 sets, join p at close of third long 
 loop, 9 sets, join at starting-point. Work 8 sets, join 
 collar between points, 8 sets, join at starting-point. Work 
 8 sets, join collar at second scallop from last joining; 3 
 sets, join first and second petals. Continue around motif 
 with chs long enough to clear the ps. Make one joining

 Ferns on the Points. — Work p, 3ds, 3p2ds 
 bet, 3 d s, join p at beginning; I d s, p, 5 d s, reverse; 
 2 d s, 5 p, 2 d s, form leaf by joining p at beginning. 
 Work 2 d s, p, 6 d s, reverse ; 2 d s, 6 p, 2 d s, form 
 leaf as before, but on opposite side from the first one. 
 Each pair of leaves increases i d s and i p each. 
 Continue until there are five leaves on one side, si.x 
 on the other, not counting the small loop at the begin- 
 ning. As this is a double fern to fit around a front 
 point, the other part is reversed, with 4 d s, p, be- 
 tween. Begin with 15 p, then 15 d s. Make two 
 pairs of each size each time before decreasing the 
 
 number of sts. After joining each 
 
 leaf at its base, reverse, 3 d s, p, 
 reverse again, to bring the p on 
 the right side to join the leaf ch. 
 There should be 11 leaves on the 
 outside, and 10 on the inside. 
 Carrj' threads to the first p of the 
 first outside leaf, and work back 
 around the outside of the two 
 ferns with chs of 4 sets 4-4 sts, 
 joining two leaves together. Con- 
 tinue, increasing the number of 
 sets when needed, leaving a p at 
 centre of each ch, and joining two 
 leaves each time. At the end of 
 the small fern join the flower 
 motif between points of the col- 
 lar at the first free scallop, after 
 3 sets 4-4 sts; 3 more sets, join 
 first free scallop on lattice point; 
 3 sets, join first leaf on fern. Con- 
 tinue across ferns, joining two 
 leaves together, as on the outside. 
 At the neck continue with three 
 lattice scallops to the point, Turn, 
 work back in the same way to the 
 fern, making the last scallop 
 around the small end loop. Cut 
 and sew ends. Care must be taken 
 to have 'the ferns made in pairs 
 to fit. The lattice-work has right

 as follows : One cup of sugar and one-half cup of 
 water are boiled to form a syrup, but not until it 
 threads. The basket is immersed in this while it is 
 hot, the surplus syrup squeezed out, and it is ready 
 to shape. It is very easy to color these baskets any 
 desired shade by stirring into the liquid the necessary 
 amount of fruit coloring. A few drops of red ink 
 
 makes a 
 beautiful pink, 
 while coffee 
 used instead 
 of water gives 
 a V a r i ety of 
 lirown shades, 
 from cream to 
 a deep brown, 
 according t o 
 the strength 
 of the coffee 
 used. One can 
 experi m e n t 
 with tea to 
 obtain a still 
 different 
 variety of 
 shades and 
 tints.

 Materials. — One ball fif 
 No. 40 crochet cotton, 
 and linen four and onc- 
 <|uarter inches in diame- 
 ter. Turn a narrow edge 
 and finish with button- 
 
 hole or feather-stitch. The lattice border is made 
 with continuous thread between shuttle and ball. To 
 leave a picot at the beginning.— tic a single knot in 
 threa<l between shuttle and ball; take knot between 
 left thumb and linger, pass ball thread around the 
 hand as usual, and (while beginning) pass shuttle 
 thread around left little linger, and back Ijctwecn 
 thumb and linger, holding those lingers together. 
 Work 4 d s, leaving a small p between the knot and 
 first d s, drop thread from little finger, and draw 
 shuttle thread closely. This forms a neat p to begin 
 with, avoids ends and is useful in making even, firm 
 coils. In the "Tatted Cord" effect, a term, as 6 
 sets of 4-4 sts, would mean, work 4 single sts like 
 the first half of ads, then 4 single sts like the last 
 half of a d s, six times. To join these cords, draw 
 the ball thread under the ch, pass shuttle through the 
 loop, draw threads so closely, that the ball thread 
 is drawn double around the ch, and the shuttle 
 thread is straight through the joining. 
 
 Lattice Border. — Leave a p at beginning, 4 d s, 
 II pads between, 3 d s. Form large loop by 
 crossing this ch I d s from beginning. Work very 
 closely to the loop, 6 sets of 4-4 sts ; ch 2 d s, 
 8 small ps, I d s between (bet), 2 d s. Form a 
 small loop, crossing at beginning of ch and joining as 
 directed. Work 4 sets of 4-4 sts, cross ch of 6 sets 
 at point 2 sets from the large loop. Work 2 sets of 
 4-4 sts and make second large loop as the first. Work

 6 sets of 4-4 sts, tlien a 
 second small loop; 2 sets of 
 4-4 sts ; join first ch of 6 sets 
 at point 2 sets from first 
 small loop. Draw enough of 
 the ball thread through to 
 the shuttle thread to pass it 
 around the hand, and work 
 2 sets of 4-4 sts. Return 
 the ball thread, bringing the 
 threads on opposite sides of 
 the work. Cross last ch of 
 6 sets, shuttle thread over, 
 ball thread under the ch, at 
 2 sets from last large loop. 
 Work 2 sets 4-4 sts, then 
 ne.xt large loop. Make 
 thirty-six each of large and 
 small loops. To join the 
 ends. When working last 
 ch of 6 sets, join, after 
 4th set, the first ch made, 
 
 2 sets from the first small 
 loop ; continue with 2 more 
 sets, and the small loop, then 2 sets joining as usual, 
 again 2 sets, cross last ch, again 2 sets, and join 
 p at beginning of first loop made. To sew to linen 
 centre ; baste linen on paper wrong side up. fit the 
 lattice-work evenly around centre on the paper, also 
 wrong side up and sew ps of small loops to edge 
 of linen; then press the work. 
 
 First roiv after Lattice-work. — Join 3d p of a large 
 loop. Work 5 sets of 4-4 sts, draw shuttle thread tight 
 through sts, join 3d p on opposite side of same

 a heavy r on the upper side. Finish with a French 
 knot in centre of the right side, and catch the threads 
 down close on the wrohg side. Join medallions by 
 2 p each, of 2 pairs of chs adjoining. Join to the 
 linen by two chs and weaving between. 
 
 For the Weaving. (See Fig. 77.) — After sewing 
 the medallions to the linen, make a i-inch loop with 
 the thread on the linen between them. Carry thread 
 tlirough the ist p and back to the loop, join; repeat 
 to next p, back and join ; repeat around, forming ten 
 strands, and weave over each pair back and forth, 
 loosely but evenly.

 Solid Coils. (See Fig. 85.) — Wind No. 40 cotton 
 around shuttle a few times. Tie a single knot in 
 thread, between shuttle and ball. Take knot between 
 thumb and finger, shuttle thread towards you. Pass 
 ball thread around hand as usual and, for convenience, 
 while beginning work, pass shuttle thread around 
 little finger and back between thumb and finger. 
 Work 12 d s, leaving a short p between the knot and 
 first St. Now drop thread from little finger and draw 
 shuttle thread through sts to the knot at beginning of 
 the coil. Continue d s, drawing shuttle thread tight 
 so as to form the coil as worked. Hold closely, mak- 
 ing the open space left in centre as small as possible. 
 When two rows are worked, it will be easier if each

 of scallops and loops, 
 join ps of work al- 
 ready made, making the 
 loops larger or smaller 
 as required. Work 
 another row of scallops 
 around outside of last 
 row, joining between scallops of last row. 
 
 Clover-Leaf, Coil, and Scroll Motif. ( See Figs. 82, 
 S3.) — Make coil of three rows, mak- 
 ing p at each 3d d s of last row of 
 coils, scroll of 12 d s, 9 p, with 5 d s 
 between, 7th p joined to a p on 
 coil, 12 d s after last p. Leaf of 
 21 p, 2 d s between, followed by 
 12 d s. Middle leaf of 25 p, 12 
 d s, and third leaf like first. Nine 
 d s joined to last p made in scroll, 
 finish as on opposite side. 
 
 Six motifs are required of this 
 size, also six more made in same 
 manner, except that the two side 
 leaves of the clover have 19 instead 
 of 21 p. Sew a second smaller coil 
 to two of the larger motifs for 
 extreme ends of collar. 
 
 The motif above crescent at back 
 has a coil, in centre of two sets of 
 scrolls with which are made five- 
 leaf clovers, first leaf having 15 p, 
 second leaf II p, centre leaf 17 p. 
 
 The si.x coils around bottom of crescent are grad- 
 uated in size, having two, three, and four rows. The 
 other four separate coils having 4 rows each, and 
 all separate coils having 2 d s between ps instead 
 of 3 like those attached to motifs. 
 
 Before sewing to net, place all work on flannel, 
 right side down, cover with damp cloth, press with 
 hot iron, then baste to 
 position through both 
 net and paper pattern ; 
 then with No. 100 thread 
 sew around all edges 
 to net, also through 
 the centre of large mo- 
 tifs, fasten each centre 
 end of coil and scroll 
 through the small p at 
 the beginning of each.

 Materials. — One ball of white 
 crochet silk, a bunch of steel 
 beads No. g, and an ivory ring. 
 String four or live hundred 
 beads on ball thread ; this is as 
 many as can be conveniently han- 
 dled in working, more may be 
 added. Fill shuttle from same 
 ball, slipping the beads along as 
 the shuttle is Idled. Tic a single 
 knot in silk, and make a p at the 
 beginning. Full directions will be 
 found on page 19, Fig. 4^, and 
 also for making sets of stitches.

 Tie the thread into the top of the p in the 22d row, 
 ■which is exactly at the side of the bag and ch 6 d s ; 
 make a long beaded p, using a piece of cardboard 2}^ 
 inches long as a measure and twist the thread so that 
 the beaded thread will twist when the p is made ; 
 ch 3 d s, and join througli the top of the two succes- 
 sive ps in the 23d row. Repeat till there are 8 long 
 twisted ps, then make 3 d s, p, 3 d s in the chs across 
 the bottom, joining the two sides together. 
 
 Now returning to the top, make a row like the first 
 one joining the rs to those in the first row. with white 
 b ps. 2d row — Blue b. Join into top of a white p in 
 last row and ch 5 d s, p, with S b, 5 d s, join to next p, 
 p with S b over joining; repeat to end of row. Fasten 
 all ends on back of work with No. 100 thread. 
 
 The cord is the d ch (see Fig. no) made with 3 
 strands of padding cotton No. 5 on the shuttle, and 
 two strands of the No. 50 with blue beads on the 
 upper, and white ones on the lower thread. Holding 
 the three threads between left thumb and finger with 
 the heavy thread between the other two, pass the 
 
 upper and lower threads around tlie fingers, being 
 careful that they do not cross, but lie a little apart. 
 
 Now take tlie middle shuttle in the right hand, 
 and with the thumb and finger slip the lower thread 
 off the fingers, without loosening the left thumb and 
 finger, and draw it back under the left thumb where 
 it is held out of the way while an ordinary d s is 
 made with the upper thread. Now slip the under 
 thread back over the fingers and make ads with it. 
 Make the last half of this d s, as ordinarily made, 
 first and draw it tight with the right hand, then make 
 the first part of the stitch. Continue making d s, 
 first with the upper and then the lower thread, till 
 the cord is about a foot long, then make ps of 3 b 
 each, separated by 5 d s on either side, until you have 
 made another foot, then another foot plain. Make 
 two of these cords, double the beaded part in the 
 centre and tie with loops. Also tie a knot in the 
 doubled cord below the beaded part. Draw the ends 
 of one cord through the upper row of rings in the 
 bag; the other through the lower row, and join the 
 ends. The bag may be lined or used unlined, as 
 desired.

 bring ends of wire

 Make slight bend 
 in centre of shorter 
 wire, bring ends 
 around to centre in 
 long loops, lap as 
 before, fasten to 
 centre bend to form 
 smaller wings. 
 .\ fter fastening 
 ends of both wires, 
 bend them into 
 proper shape for 
 the outline of each 
 pair of wings, then 
 remove from body 
 and leave ends free 
 while covering 
 wire, it will be 
 found much easier. 
 Cover wire of both 
 pairs of wings very 
 closely with No. 60 
 crochet cotton in 
 d c. 
 
 Tatted Edge. — 
 Join threads about 
 ;/. in. from end of 
 wire to crochet 
 cover, 2 d s, 3 p 
 separated by I d s. 
 2 d s, centre p 
 longer than others, 
 join to 4th st on 
 wire from first 
 joining. Continue 
 around both pairs 
 of wings. 
 
 Now make 8 
 tatted coils; wind 
 thread a few times 
 .iround shuttle, but 
 do not disconnect. 
 
 Take doubled end 
 of thread between 
 thumb and fore- 
 finger of left hand, 
 pass ball thread 
 around left hand, 
 hold fi r ni 1 y the 
 doubled end while 
 with shuttle thread 
 work a few d s, 
 then draw shuttle 
 thread through 
 tightly, and thus 
 form the centre of 
 coil. Continue d s, 
 drawing shuttl'j 
 thread tight enough 
 to make coil, with 
 thumb and finger 
 as sts are made, 
 work three rows of 
 d s from centre of 
 coil, then one row, 
 having a p after 
 each third d s, cut 
 threads, hold coil 
 firmly and with fine 
 thread sew ends on 
 under side of coil, 
 and around coil to 
 hold rows in place. 
 The two coils 
 nearest the I) o d y 
 should have four 
 row's before the p 
 row to make them 
 larger. 
 
 Smat.ler Wings. 
 — Make 2 coils like 
 those for larger 
 wings, but continue 
 with the stem, 
 which leads from 
 them through centre 
 of w- i n g s thus : 
 After sewing the 
 coils in ; ch 6 half 
 sts like the first 
 half of a d s, p, 
 and 6 half sts like 
 the hist half of a d 
 s. Continue until 
 long enough to 
 reach end of wings 
 next to body. With 
 a little help from 
 thumb and finger 
 tlie p thus made will 
 fall alternately on 
 each side of the 
 centre, making a 
 pretty double p 
 cord. Now lap and 
 fasten ends <if wires 
 of both pairs of 
 wings. Sew coils 
 to jiosition by their 
 
p to crocheted covering of wire on under side. 
 
 The ch of r from coils on edge of the large wings 
 lu centre coils, are made as follows: With shuttle 
 thread make r of 2 d s, 17 p separated by I d s, 
 J d s, close, make lock-stitch at close of each r 
 thus : Draw loop of shuttle thread under ball thread, 
 pass shuttle through loop, draw close, carry thread 
 through centre of r just made on under side of r 
 and join to centre p of same r. Proceed as before, 
 making 4 r, each 2 p smaller than the one 
 preceding. Make six of these chs of rs, 
 sew the ends to centre coils, and also 
 coils to edge of wings as illustrated. 
 
 Make two more chs of rs as follows: 
 String a quantity 
 of small jet beads 
 on shuttle thread ; 
 r of 2 d s, 4 p 
 separated by 2 d s, 
 3 d s, slipping a 
 bead into each p 
 as made, on one 
 side of r, also as 
 many beads as 
 will lill the thread 
 througli centre of 
 r. Join these jet- 
 ted r to coil in 
 lower corner 
 large wings, and 
 to wired edge in 
 form of J4 circle. 
 Make two sepa- 
 rate r for each 
 wing to fill open 
 .spaces and sew to 
 position. Also 
 with line thread 
 tack lightly across 
 ch of rs on undei" 
 side to hold in 
 place. 
 
 Fasten sets of 
 wings together by 
 placing where 
 wires are lapped, 
 sew to under side 
 of body. 
 
 A N T E N N X. — 
 
 These are made 
 in same manner 
 as the coils, hav- 
 ing a black bead 
 on thread at be- 
 ginning, and 
 drawing shuttle 
 tliread just tight enough to make them curve natm-ally
