Beeton, Mrs. Isabella Mary, 1836-1865

"Beeton's Book of Needlework"


5th round: Begin to work with the darker wool and crochet slip stitch,
inserting the needle in the front chain of the stitches of the 4th
round.
The 6th round is worked once more with light wool, and consists entirely
of double stitch, worked by inserting the needle at the back of the
stitches of the 4th round, so that the slip stitches appear raised on
the right side of the work, and form a round of chain stitches. The
middle part of the couvrette is then finished.

them, 1 double.

round.
9th round: 3 double in each scallop.

12th, 13th, 14th, 15th, and 16th rounds, like the 7th--11th;
17th--19th rounds like the 7th--9th.
20th round: Alternately 1 treble with the light wool, 1 treble with the
dark; but every treble stitch must be cast off with the wool of the
colour of the next stitch; that is, a light treble stitch with the dark
wool, and a dark treble stitch with the light wool.
