A Shawl in Raised Knitting.
The centre may be worked in violet, or dark claret: the border in eight shades of stone colour, including the extreme shades—black and white.—German wool.—Two needles, No. 16, and one needle, No. 10.
Commence with the border, by casting on four hundred and eighty stitches, with black. Work two patterns in each shade of colour, decreasing, by knitting two together, at the beginning of each row, except on the first four;—when four hundred and twenty stitches will remain on the needle for the centre of the shawl.
With the violet or claret wool, work a square of four hundred and twenty stitches, to form the centre. Then,—
Commence the opposite border, with the white shade of stone colour, increasing on every row, except on the last four; and reversing the shades of colour, so as to form a similar border to the first.
Two side borders, in separate pieces, are now to be worked in the manner first described. These are afterwards to be sewn on;—the decreasing having formed an angle, that admits of the right shades of colour joining correctly.
