THE APatOnS STAR RATING FOR
HAND KNIT AND CROCHET— TO HELP YOU TO CHOOSE THE
PATTERN SUITED TO YOUR ABILITY.
One star says this is a beginner level of knitting and
crochet. Basic stitches only, with simple shaping.
Two stars mean easy knitting and crochet, with somefancy patterns such as shells, mesh and simple 2
colour patterns.
ir ir if Three stars are for advanced knitters and crochet
workers requiring some specialised knowledge, such
as Fair Isle, Aran and more complicated lace
patterns.
P The Letter P after any star grouping suggests that an
additional degree of patience is required.

MAKE UPDO NOT PRESS. Using a flat seam,join leg and foot seams. Thread rib-
bon through holes at ankles.
BACK-STITCH SEAMThis is the method most commonly used for joining
knitted garments. The seam should be sewn one full
stitch In from the end of each row so that all seamswill be even. One stitch should be worked over every
row. Darn in all ends of yarn after sewing seams.
KNITTING UP STITCHES.This is the method used for neckbands, armholebands, etc. Hold work in left hand with right side
facing you. Hold working needle and yarn in right
hand. Insert point of needle through work from front to
back. Wrap yarn round point of needle and knit a
stitch.
When working along a cast-off edge, insert needle
under both loops of cast-off stitch, and knit up onestitch in each cast-off stitch. (Diagram A).
When working along side edge, insert needle inside
one full stitch from the edge (i.e. behind 2 loops of
stitch, not just the edge loop). (Diagram B).
You will find along this edge that there is alternately
one long and one short stitch. If you require less
stitches than there are along this edge, always knit upthrough the short stitches and omit some of the long
stitches. (Diagram C).
Before commencing, always count the number of
rows you have and compare it to the number of
stitches you require, then you will be able to make anyadjustments evenly along the length of the work.
If you find it difficult to knit up stitches neatly, try using
needles 1 or 2 sizes finer than those in the
instructions— but do not forget to change back to the
correct size for knitting the band.

MAKE UPDO NOT PRESS. Using a flat seam,join edges to form a circle, taking
care not to make seam too tight. Roll
shawl in a damp towel for several
hours, then spread out flat in a circle,
pin each point out separately with
rustless pins and leave until dry.
Flat Seam.This method is sometimes used for knittedgarments but more often forcrochet garments.A flat seam may be worked from either the right
or the wrong side of the work. Place the 2pieces of fabric evenly together and sew stitch
by stitch, always bringing the needle up fromunderneath to top through the centre of thestitch, then in same manner through corre-sponding stitch on second piece of fabric.
Note-Diagram shows knitted fabric, but methodis the same for knitting or crochet. Always,keep work elastic-there should be as muchstretch in your seam as there is in the rest of
your garment.

SLIP-STITCHThis Is the method used for turning up hems or stitching
double neckbands In place. Work one stitch Into eachcast-on or cast-off stitch to be sure that the work will
be elastic. Always be sure that the stitches follow upevenly and do not form a crooked line.
HELPFUL HINTSNeatening of cast-off buttonholes. When working the row after buttonhole has been completed, withright-hand needle pick up purlways the loose thread, or threads, at base of buttonhole, slip it on toleft-hand needle and work it together with the first stitch on left-hand needle.
Alternatively, when working the cast-on row of buttonhole, before slipping the last cast-on stitch onto the left-hand needle, pass the yarn from back to front between the needles, then slip the stitch onto the left-hand needle and complete row.

TO MAKE A TWISTED CORDMethod requires two people. Take as many strands of
yarn as required, approximately three times the length
required for the finished cord. Knot each end and slip apencil between strands. Each person holds yarn just
below pencil with one hand and twists pencil
clockwise with other hand, keeping yarn taut. Whenyarn begins to kink, catch centre over door-knob or
back of chair. Bring pencils together for one person to
hold, while other grasps centre of yarn, sliding handdown and releasing at short intervals, letting yarn
twist. Knot ends to prevent unravelling.
POM-PONS
To make a Pom-Pon, cut two circles of cardboard,
the diameter depends on the size of the Pom-Ponto be made, and should be equal to the size of the
finished Pom-Pon plus approximately 1 .25 cm for
trimming, plus the diameter of the centre hole,
e.g., for a Pom-Pon 4 cm across, the circles would
be 4 cm, plus 1.25 cm. plus 1.25 cm for centre
hole, equals 6.5 cm. Cut a round hole in the
centre, the size of the hole is approximately a
quarter of the finished Pom-Pon. Wind the yarn
round and round the cardboard until the centre
hole is completely filled up.
Place the point of a pair of scissors between the
two pieces of cardboard and cut around, keeping
scissors between two circles of cardboard all the
time. Using a double strand of yarn, wrap round
between the two circles of cardboard, knot firmly,
and take away cardboard (see diagram). Trim
Pom-Pon.

CASTING ON FOR K1, P1 RIB
This Is a variation of the two-needle method of casting on, and gives a very neat and elastic edge. It is notsuitable for any rib other than K1, P1.
First you will need to read the first rib row, as this will determine how you start your casting on.
1.
If you need an uneven number of stitches and the first row reads “K2, * P1,
K1,rep from * to last st, K1 .” — Make a slip loop and place It on left-hand nee-
dle. Insert right-hand needle Into loop knitways and knit a st, slip the st thusmade on to the left-hand needle. ** Insert right-hand needle purlways bet-
ween last 2 sts and purl a st (see diagram 1), slip the st thus made on to left-
hand needle (taking care not to twist the st). Insert right-hand needle knitwaysbetween last 2 sts and knit a st (see diagram 2), slip the st thus made on toleft-hand needle, rep from * * for required number of sts, ending with 2 knit sts(before slipping the last st on to your left-hand needle, bring your yarn for-
ward between the two needles, — this will keep the edge of your work neat).
2.
If you need an even number of stitches and the first row reads K1, P1, rep from * to last 2 sts, K2." — Workas for method 1, but end with 1 knit st instead of 2.
3.
If you need an uneven number of stitches and the first row reads “K1, * P1,K1, rep from * to end.” — Make a slip loop and place it on left-hand needle. In-
sert right-hand needle into loop purlways and purl a st, slip the st thus madeon to left-hand needle (taking care not to twist the st).
** Insert right-handneedle knitways between last 2 sts and knit a st (see diagram 2), slip the st
thus made on to left-hand needle. Insert right-hand needle purlways betweenlast 2 sts and purl a st (see diagram 1), slip the st thus made on to left-handneedle (taking care not to twist the st), rep from * * for required number of sts,
ending with 1 knit st (before slipping the last st on to your left-hand needle,bring your yarn forward between the two needles —• this will keep the edge ofyour work neat).
4.
If you need an even number of stitches and the first row reads ”K2, • P1, K1, rep from * to end.” — Work as formethod 3, but end with 2 knit sts Instead of 1.

KNITTING AND CROCHET ABBREVIATIONSK = knit; P = purl; sl = slip; psso = pass slipped stitch(es) over; tbi = through back of loop(s); y bk = yarn back — take yarn under needlefrom purling position into knitting position; y ft = yarn front — bring yarn under needle from knitting position into purling position; y fwd =yarn forward — bring yarn under needle, then over Into knitting position again, thus making a stitch; yon = yarn over needle — take yarnover top of needle into knitting position, thus making a stitch; yrn = yarn round needle — take yarn right around needle into purling position,thus making a stitch; “M1” = make 1 — pick up loop which lies before next stitch, place on left-hand needle and knit (or purl) into back ofloop; garter st = every row knit; stocking st = 1 row knit, 1 row purl; reverse stocking st = 1 row purl, 1 row knit (purl side is right side).
When instructions read — “Cast off 2 sts, K2“ (or similar stitches), the stitch left on the right-hand needle, after casting off, is counted asone stitch.
ch =s chain; sp = space; sl st = slip stitch; dc = double crochet; yoh = yarn over hook; h tr = half treble — pass yarn round hook, draw aloop through next stitch, draw a loop through all 3 loops on hook; tr = treble — pass yarn round hook, draw a loop through next stitch, drawa loop through first 2 loops on hook, then draw another loop through 2 remaining loops; d tr = double treble — pass yarn twice round hook,draw a loop through next stitch, draw a loop through first 2 loops on hook, draw a loop through next 2 loops, then another through last 2loops; t tr = triple treble — pass yarn three times round hook, draw a loop through next stitch, draw a loop through first 2 loops on hook,draw a loop through next 2 loops, another through next 2 loops, then another through last 2 loops.alt = alternate; beg = begin or beginning; cont = continue; dec = decrease, decreased, decreases or decreasing; foil = following orfollows; inc = increase, increased, increases or increasing; inci = Including or inclusive; 0 = no rows, stitches or times; patt = pattern; rem= remain, remains, remainder or remaining; rep = repeat; st, sts = stitch, stitches; tog = together; cm = centlmetre(s); mm =millimetre(s); Ins = Inches.
