There will now be 208 stitches, work on two rounds of scarlet, increasing to 240, and then join on the band. This is done by holding the top of the band and the edge of the round together, and working one round, taking up the chain of both. Work on the cord with black wool and white silk, two stitches of each alternately; draw in the end of twine. Take care in placing the two parts of the cap together, to make that part which begins every round at the same place in both, as a small defect in the pattern is inevitable, and must be covered by the tassel. Draw the string of the tassel through the centre of the crown, and fasten it in its place. The cap may be lined with scarlet sarsenet.
