FOR THE FLOWERS.—With white wool make 9 ch. tightly, unite, and under this circle work 11 l. with 1 ch. between each, cut off the white.
Tie on with a weaver's knot the lightest blue, work 1 l. under each 1 ch., with 1 ch. between each, only let there be 12 l. instead of 11.
Next shade blue. Work this row rather loosely, d.c. under every 1 ch., then 1 ch., repeat; at the end draw down the end of blue wool, and tie it to the end of white; make 4 flowers this size, which should not be larger than the size of a sixpence. Now make 2 of larger size, working them exactly the same, only making 14 l. stitches of the white, and 15 l. stitches of the blue; now, with white wool sew on the two largest flowers on the centre seam of the pocket, then the 2 smaller ones on each side.
FOR THE LEAVES.—With darkest green make 8 ch., turn back, work 7 d.c. down, join on the next green; work 3 d.c. up, 4 l., and 4 l., into the top loop, 1 ch., 4 more l. into same loop, 4 l. down, 3 d.c., join on the lightest shade: work d.c. all round, and 3 d.c. into the 1 ch, but enclosing a wire pulled from white ribbon wire, taking care to bend the end of the wire back after the 1st and last stitch to prevent its slipping; make 6 of these leaves, arrange them as in engraving, and with dark green wool sew them on.
To prevent the pocket from curving, cover a narrow piece of whalebone the length with scarlet ribbon, and sew it across the centre on the wrong side.
