Canvass Pattern.
Two stitches to a pattern, 3 half-ounce skeins of shaded scarlet
8-threaded wool, and 2 skeins of 8-threaded white wool, 6 rows
of scarlet, and 4 of white. Cast on 100 stitches.
First row:--Seam 1, seam the remainder of the stitches,
passing the wool twice round the pin. This row is not repeated,
but the knitting continued with the 2d and 3d rows till large
enough.
Second row:--Knit half the 1st stitch, knit the other half with
half the 2d stitch, passing the wool twice round the pin, knit the
other half of the 2d stitch with the 1st half of the 3d stitch,
passing the wool twice round the pin, and so on.
Third row:--Seam half the 1st stitch, seam the other half with
the 1st half of the 2d stitch, passing the wool twice round the
pin, seam the other half of the 2d stitch with the 1st half of the
3d stitch, passing the wool twice round; repeat. Finish this
round with fringe No. 2; use scarlet for the head, and scarlet
and white for the fringe.
