Seventh row—pearl.
Eighth row—plain knitting.
Begin again from the 1st row.
Arrow Pattern in Stripes.
(VERY EASY.)
Cast on any uneven number of stitches, according to the width you require. We will say 13. Put the wool before the needle and knit 6 plain stitches. This makes 7 stitches on the right-hand needle. Knit 2 together. The rest plain. Every row alike.
Cable Knitting.
This is very pretty, either for the tops of babies’ boots or stockings in fine wool, or for couvrettes, quilts, &c. in coarser.
It takes 8 stitches for the pattern. Cast on as many as you require for the width of the knitting, and do 1 row plain.
Second row—pearl 1, put the wool back, slip 1, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over; pearl 1, putting the thread twice round the needle, knit 4. Repeat to the end of the row.
