It is essential to work to the stated tension,
and we cannot accept responsibility for the
finished product if any yarn other than the
specified yarn is used.
Quantities of yarn are approximate as
they are based on average require-
ments.
Although every effort is made to
ensure that the colours on this leaflet
are true representations of their
respective yams, they may not always
exactly match due to technical restric-
tions of printing processes.
We recommend Milward or Susan Bates knit-
ting needles.
Important
It is important to check your tension before
starting your garment. If there are too manystitches to 10 cm, your tension is tight andyou should change to a larger size needle. If
there are too few, your tension is loose and
you should change to a smaller size needle.

Motif Knitting
For working blocks of two or more colours,
work in rows, joining in colours at appropri-
ate point. Do not carry colours across wrongside of work, but link 2 colours by twisting
round each other where they meet on wrongside to avoid a hole (see diagram).
For easier motif knitting we recommendSusan Bates Yarn Bobs. These bobbins are
easy to handle and several can be used at a
time as they hang at the back of the workkeeping colours free from tangles. Windlength of colour round each bobbin and join
in at appropriate points on the row in the
usual way.
Fairytale 3 ply - Do not press.
Baby Pure Wool 3 ply - With wrong side of
work facing, block each piece by pinning out
round edges, and omitting ribbing, press
lightly following instructions on the bail
band.
HANDY HINTS
When marking position of buttons on Button
Border with pins, mark first and last buttons
as specified, then count the number of rowsin between. Divide these rows as evenly as
possible for the remaining buttons required
and place pins accordingly, then make sure
that the same number of rows are worked onthe Buttonhole Border between each button-
hole placing.
Do not dry handknits in harsh sunlight as fad-
ing or yellowing may occur.
