248.--_Crochet Purse over Rings._
Materials: 67 rings; 2 skeins each of cerise and black, and 1 of maize
coarse purse silk.
Work in double crochet with maize over one ring 38 stitches; this is the
centre ring for the bottom of the purse.
[Illustration: 248.--Crochet Purse over Rings.]
Then work with cerise colour over a ring 19 stitches, take another ring
and work 19 stitches, repeat this till you have 6 rings, then work round
the other half of each ring 19 stitches; and when the 6 are finished,
join the first to the last to make a circle; sew the maize ring into the
centre of it, then work over 12 rings with black in the same manner, and
place them outside the cerise circle. Then work over 16 rings with maize
colour, and join them beyond the black, but not to lie flat down; they
are to stand up to form the sides of the purse.
