FOOTNOTES:

[A] There is unfortunately no standard of measure for crochet hooks and knitting needles. Various manufacturers number them differently. This scale is used here for convenience only.

[B] To find size of crochet needles, lay the hooks flat against the circles. To find the size of knitting needles, lay the needles (not the points) against the circles.

[C] Cut means picture.

[D] For small hair pins.

[E] See how to attach new yarn, [page 142].

[F] This work is begun in the middle of the bag—see the knot on the right-hand edge in the picture.

[G] Cotton string may be used in place of woolen yarn.

[H] Cotton string may be used instead of woolen yarn.

[I] Other methods of casting on stitches are shown on pages 150 and 261.

[J] See How to Cast On Stitches with Knitting Needle, pages 260 and 261.

[K] The doll’s mittens are so small that they are difficult to make. It would be a good experiment to make one mitten with wrapping yarn before attempting to use the saxony wool—just for practice.

[L] This sacque is easy for children to make, and should be made before Sacque No. 2.

[M] This piece is difficult for children to make.

[N] This piece is difficult for children to make.

[O] This piece makes a pretty bonbon holder for the table.

[P] The curly stitches need not come below each other.

[Q] Other methods are explained on pages 150 and 155.

[T] For the convenience of knitters the directions from the circular of Red Cross instructions are here given.
