A Baby’s Quilt in Stripes of alternate Colours.
This is worked in separate stripes, and afterwards sewn together by the loops formed on either side of the pattern. About nine stripes, each twenty-seven inches long, will be required. It is prettiest in pink and white, or pale blue and white.
Cast on twelve stitches for each stripe.—Six-thread fleecy.—Short needles, No. 8.
First row—bring the wool forward, knit two together; knit two.—Repeat.
Every row is the same.
Another Quilt.
This pattern may be worked in pink, and white, nine-thread fleecy.—Needles No. 2.—Cast on any number of stitches that can be divided by three.
First row—with white,—bring the wool forward, slip one; knit two, pass the slip-stitch over them.—Repeat.
Second row—with pink,—pearl knitting.
Third row—the same as the first, with pink.
It is not necessary to break off the wool, as it may be passed from row to row. The colour is always to be changed in the pearled row.
