Entered according to Act of Congress, in the year 188?, By HENRY BRISTOW, -in the Office of the Librarian of Congress, Washington, D. C. c INTRODUCTION TO SECOND EDITION. The first edition of JVo. 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, ivhich has decided us to re-issue it under its present form. It has been carefully re-written,, so as to follow the very full instructions found in- JNo. 1. 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 DESIGNS. Especially adapted for twine. Illustrated. Sec- ond Edition. Enlarged. No. 3.-MISCELLANEOUS DESIGNS. Tidies, Mats and Spreads. Illustrated. TWINE CROCHET WORK. 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 had 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 bracket lambrequins, scarfs for chairs and tables, covers for sofa pillows and ottomans, toilet and dinner mats, hand-bags, etc., etc., etc. DESCRIPTION OF TERMS DSED 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 times. Double Double Crochet. — Turn twine three times around the needle, work as double crochet, bringing twine through two loops four times. 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 first loop spoken of and draw it through. * The above are the primitive or foundation stitches, of which all fancy stitches are modifiations 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.
