The stocking cap, [Fig. 56], can be made to hang longer on the side of the head by adding a few more rows of knitting to sections A and C, [Fig. 55].
FOOTNOTES:
[1] As the knitting proceeds it will be found that a nail at one end or the other is left with only one thread each time the yarn passes over and back. This corresponds to the first “slipped stitch” in knitting with needles.
[2] Care must be taken to do this after each row of stitches has been lifted over the nails. As the knitting grows it can also be gently pulled through from the other side of the rake.
[3] Be sure always to take a stitch first from one row of nails and then from the other.
