A Quilt, or Couvre-Pied, in squares.
This may be worked with Zephyr fleecy,—No. 9 needles, each piece being about three and a half inches square. Every square is worked in two colours,—as blue and white; lilac and white; gold colour and white; green and white; etc. These pieces are afterwards to be joined together, arranging them, according to their several colours. Each square, however, if preferred, may be worked the same. The following directions are for a square in green and white:—
First row—bring the wool forward, knit one,—in green. Work five more rows, in the same manner, when there should be seven stitches on the needle.
Seventh row—bring the wool forward, knit two,—in green; join on the white,—knit three;—join on another length of green,—knit two.
Eighth row—bring the green wool forward, knit two; pearl three, white; knit three, green.
Ninth, and Tenth rows—knit to the end of each row, with green, increasing at the beginning, as before.
Eleventh row—bring the wool forward, knit two, green; knit seven, white; knit two, green.
Twelfth row—bring the wool forward, knit two, green; pearl seven, white; knit three, green.
