rosette is sewn on the material of the cravat with button-hole stitches,
taking up one purl with each stitch; the muslin is cut away underneath
the rosette; then work a round of knotted stitches underneath the

inch distant from each other, consisting each of 6 double, 1 purl, 2
double, 1 purl, 4 times 2 double divided by 1 purl, 1 purl, 2 double, 1
purl, 6 double, which are fastened together by the purl of each circle,
and are sewn on the cravat over the cotton between the circles in
overcast stitch.
