Directions
Use Barbour's linen thread, No. 60, as it wears twice as long as that made from cotton thread, besides looking much better. It is an inser- tion and scallop combined, "with a " beading " at each edge of the inser- tion. Every alternate row is knit plain, except the " beading," when the thread is passed twice around the needle, and two stitches seamed together every row.
Cast on twenty-nine stitches. First row — Knit two, thread over twice, seam two, knit two, thread over once, narrow, thread over, nar- row, thread over, narrow, knit seven, thread over twice, seam two, knit two, thread over, narrow, thread over, narrow, thread over, knit one, knit one.
