527.--_Small Square_.
Materials: Frame; Messrs. Walter Evans and Co.'s Mecklenburg thread No.
4, 6, or 8 for the netting, and No. 16 for the pattern.
[Illustration: 527.--Small Square.]
Work over a mesh measuring 2-1/10 inch round the foundation of each
square, which has seven stitches in length, and as many in breadth. It
is embroidered in darning stitch, and point d'esprit, and wheels. The
outer edge is worked round in button-hole stitch. Larger squares are
worked in the same manner, only a few rows larger in length and breadth.
The squares are fastened together with a few stitches, and sewn on the
pincushion or any article they are intended to ornament.

This strip of insertion is very pretty, and can be used for all kinds of
lingeries. The size of the material depends, of course, on the use to
be made of the insertion.
