5th row--on the first 7 chain of the 4th row: 7 plain, * on the next chain st.i.tches: 12 plain = turn the work, and crochet to and fro, decreasing by 1 st.i.tch in each row, until you have only 2 st.i.tches left = along the leaf: 10 plain and repeat 3 times from * = 7 plain on the next 7 chain, 6 plain on the 5 chain, 7 plain on the 7 chain.

The corner scallop has 7 points = the 12 first st.i.tches must be divided as follows: * 1st point: 12 plain in the first interval = 2nd point: 10 plain in the 2nd interval and 2 plain in the 3rd interval = 3rd point: 7 plain in the 3rd interval and 5 plain in the 4th **. Repeat once from **

to *.

6th row--* 1 plain in the 1st leaf, 5 chain, 1 crossed quadruple treble, the branches of which are joined by 5 chain; repeat twice from * = 1 plain, 4 chain, 1 plain in the 1st leaf of the next scallop = 5 chain, 1 crossed quadruple treble, the branches of which are joined by 5 chain and joined to the 6th st.i.tch of the 2 next points = 5 chain and so on.

7th row--6 plain on the first 5 chain of the 6th row, 6 plain on the next chain = 8 chain; carry the chain back to the right, and join it on, between the 6th and 7th plain = 4 plain on the 8 chain, then 8 chain, take it back, and join to the 1st plain = 12 plain on the 8 chain = continue on the small scallop: 3 plain, 1 picot, 8 plain = on the other 5 chain: 6 plain = 8 chain, join them again to the 4th of the 8 plain on the scallop = on the last 8 chain: 3 plain, 1 picot, 8 plain = on the 2 next bars of 5 chain: 12 plain = 8 chain, join them to the 7th of the last 12 plain = on the 8 chain: 5 plain = 8 chain, join them to the 1st of the last 12 plain = on the 8 chain: 5 plain, 3 chain, join them to the 4th plain of the 3rd finished scallop = over the 3 chain: 2 plain, 1 picot, 2 plain = on the next scallop: 3 plain, 1 picot, 3 plain = in the half finished scallop: 6 plain = 8 chain, take it back and join it to the 1st of the last 6 plain = on the 8 chain: 5 plain, 1 picot, 3 plain, 1 picot, 5 plain to finish the scallop below: 5 plain = on the 6th row: 6 plain, 8 chain, join them to the first of the last 5 plain of the last scallop = on the 8 chain: 3 plain, 1 picot, 8 plain.

The little scallops must be carried on round the corner point, as they were on the 3rd, 4th and 5th trebles of the other points.

LACE WITH CORNER, FORMED BY DECREASING ON THE INSIDE (fig. 473).--For the stars--8 chain, close the ring; 3 chain, 15 trebles in the ring; close = 3 chain, miss 1 treble of the last row, 1 treble, 5 chain, 1 treble on the upper part of the last treble = alternate 7 times: 1 chain, 1 crossed treble divided by 2 chain, lastly 1 chain, close the ring, fasten off.

Make 11 stars, and join them together as follows, counting the third from the left, in the engraving, as the first.--When you have joined the 1st star to the 2nd by the 6th and 7th cross trebles, join the next stars so that when the 3rd is fastened on, there should be 2 crossed trebles on the inside and outside of the 2nd star. The 3rd star will have: 1 crossed treble on the outside, 3 on the inside = the 4th: 2 crossed trebles inside, 2 outside = the 5th, the 6th, and the 7th: 1 inside, 3 outside = the 8th: 2 on the inside and outside = the 9th: 3 inside, 1 outside = the 10th: 2 outside, 2 inside = the 11th: 3 outside, 1 inside. For the next scallops, repeat from the 2nd to the 5th star.

2nd row--* over the 2 chain st.i.tches of the 3rd crossed treble of the 11th star: 1 treble, 3 chain = over the 1st chain st.i.tch between the 3rd and 4th crossed trebles: 1 treble, 3 chain = over the next 2 chain st.i.tches: 1 double treble, 3 chain = 3 overs, in the next s.p.a.ce: 1 double treble and 1 double treble in the 1st s.p.a.ce of the 10th star; connect the two trebles together, 3 chain, 1 double treble, 3 chain, 1 treble, 3 chain, 1 treble, 3 chain, 1 connected treble as before, 3 chain ** 1 plain over the 2 chain st.i.tches of the last crossed treble of the 9th star. Repeat from ** to *, therefore backwards.

[Ill.u.s.tration: FIG. 474. SQUARE WITH COLOURED TUFTS.

MATERIALS: Coton pour crochet D.M.C Nos. 6 to 10, or Coton a tricoter D.M.C Nos. 6 to 12.[A]

COLOURS. White and Rouge-Turc 321, or ecru and Bleu-Indigo 321, Rouge-Geranium 353 and Brun-Caroubier 356, Bleu d'Azur 3325 and Brun-Rouille 3312, Vert-Bouteille 494 and Bleu-Prunelle 489.[A]]

SQUARE WITH COLOURED TUFTS (fig. 474).--The following are different counterpane patterns which should be worked in coa.r.s.e cotton; our engraving represents a single square, worked in two colours, in raised crochet. By joining a number of such squares together, 4 or 6 colours can be introduced into one covering with very good effect.

Cast on 13 chain and close the ring.

1st row--1 plain on the 1st of the 13 chain, 5 chain, 1 plain on the 4th chain, 5 chain, 1 plain on the 7th chain, 5 chain, 1 plain on the 10th chain, 5 chain, 1 plain on the 13th chain.

2nd row--1 plain on the 1st plain of the 1st row * 1 plain on the 1st of the 5 chain; 5 chain, 1 plain on the 5th chain. Repeat 3 times from *.

3rd row--5 plain on the 5 chain, 5 chain, 5 plain and so on.

4th and 5th rows--continue to increase, as in the 3rd row.

6th row--after the 3rd plain, 1 tuft in the contrasting colour (see fig.

431).

The contrasting colour is to be introduced into the work at the first tuft, and cut off when the last is finished.

The ends of the coloured threads must be worked in under the st.i.tches of the next row. The square may be of any size; it is bordered by small picot scallops by means of which the different squares are joined together.

[Ill.u.s.tration: FIG. 475. STRIPES FOR COUNTERPANES.

MATERIALS: Coton pour crochet D.M.C Nos. 6 to 8, or Coton a tricoter D.M.C Nos. 6 to 12 and Lacets surfins D.M.C No. 4, or Soutache D.M.C No.

2.[A]

COLOURS: Gris-Lin 716 and Rouge-Bordeaux 497, Gris-Tilleul 393 and Bleu-Faience 484 or Brun-Caroubier 356 and Jaune-Rouille 308 etc.[A]]

STRIPES FOR COUNTERPANES (fig. 475).--We recommend the use of Soutache D.M.C or Lacets superfins D.M.C (braids) for the coloured st.i.tches, in the place of cotton. The dark st.i.tches standing, so to speak, on another ground of st.i.tches the pattern will look brighter, if it be worked in a flat material that will spread out more than cotton does.

The stripe, worked in its entire length and always on the right side, must be begun by a chain of st.i.tches of the length the stripe is to be.

1st row--1 plain st.i.tch on each chain st.i.tch.

2nd row--1 plain st.i.tch with white or unbleached cotton, on each second st.i.tch of the preceding row; 1 long plain st.i.tch with the coloured cotton or the braid, in each second loop of the chain st.i.tch.

When red and white cotton are used, only one thread must be drawn through the 1st loop, and the other through the two last loops.

3rd, 5th, 7th, 9th, 11th rows--plain st.i.tches of the colour of the grounding = 4th row--between every 5 coloured st.i.tches 3 white = 6th row--between every 4 red, 5 white = 8th row--between every 3 red, 7 white = 10th row--between every 2 red, 9 white = 12th row--between the single red st.i.tches, 11 white plain.

In the second half of the pattern the red st.i.tches must increase in the same proportion as that in which they decreased before.

PATTERN OF A COUNTERPANE IN TUNISIAN CROCHET (fig. 476). This pattern, on a reduced scale, of a counterpane in Tunisian crochet, though it is worked here in several colours, can be done all in one. The numbers of the st.i.tches, as they are here given, refer of course to the pattern represented in our figure; if worked on a larger scale, the number of st.i.tches would have to be increased every way in the proper proportion.

For the inner square, which is worked in a light material, make 20 chain st.i.tches, on which you make 17 rows of plaited Tunisian crochet, fig.

445, then fasten off.
