Work the same number of squares, as in the engraving, by commencing on
one stitch, and increasing one at the end of every row till you get
sufficient length of one side; and then decrease one at the end of
every row by taking two loops into one. Then darn according to the
engraving.
Make sufficient number of tassels to go round. Wind the cotton over a
card three inches wide, cut one end, and draw through the loop of
netting, and make four more tassels larger; over a card six inches
wide for the corners. Six squares measure one inch.
