Beeton, Mrs. Isabella Mary, 1836-1865

"Beeton's Book of Needlework"

When the 10th part is com-* *pleted,
take the selvedge stitches of the left-hand side of the same on a
separate needle, cast them off with the cast-on stitches of the first
part, and fasten the wool. Then take the 6 selvedge stitches on the
right hand of one part on a separate needle; take the grey wool, and
work on these stitches 13 rows backwards and forwards; the first row is
knitted; it is worked on the right side of the work; in this, and in
every following _knitted_ row, knit the last stitch together with the
next stitch of the next violet part. When 10 such grey parts are
completed (each of the remaining 9 parts consists of 13 rows, and begins
with one knitted row), take all the stitches and the selvedge stitches
of these parts on four needles and knit with these stitches, also with
grey wool 1 row knitted, in which the 6 selvedge stitches must be
decreased to 3 by knitting always 2 stitches together as 1 stitch; each
of the other stitches is knitted as usual. Then purl 2 rows with violet
wool, and cast off.
