Be this as it may, the child who is a lover of +nature will be quick to perceive the strong resemblance he bears to this +little insect while at work with his toy knitter, going from post to +post just as the insect worked its net in spiral form on his framework +of radiating lines. + +The possibilities of an empty spool and a few pins are almost without +limitations. The illustrations here given are merely suggestive of many +more that can be worked out along these lines. They are not simply to +momentarily attract the child, but to permit of individual growth, and +to have him participate in the joy of its ultimate use. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Toy Knitters + + +Toy knitters are made of a cylindrical piece of wood two and one-half or +three inches long and at least one inch in diameter. This size enables +the child to grasp it easily and work without cramping the fingers. A +hole one-fourth or one-half inch in diameter is bored lengthwise through +the center to admit the work. Spools are used to advantage where +knitters cannot be obtained. + +Pins, staples, or wire nails are used as posts. These are driven into +the wood and then curved outward a little at the top with pliers, to +prevent the work from slipping off. One, two, three or four posts may be +used. + +A number of forms of web can be made, but the simplest and quickest are +those made on the knitters having but two posts. The four-post knitters +are also simple and are used where a thick cord is needed. + +Except otherwise specified two-post knitters are used for these models. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Round Web + + +Drop worsted through the hole in the center of the knitter and draw it +out at the other end, three inches. This end is used to draw the work +through the knitter. Carry the worsted leading from the ball, around the +post to the right, across the center of the hole in the knitter and +around the post to the left; then back across the center to the post at +the right, thus making two stitches on this post. Lift the lower or +first stitch with a large pin or knitting needle, carry it over the +second stitch and drop it over the post; then across the center to the +post at the left and repeat. So continue until the desired length is +obtained. + +It will require seven yards of yarn to make one yard of web on the +two-post knitter. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Flat Web + + +Begin in the same way as for round web, but after carrying the first or +lower stitch over the second stitch on each post, bring the worsted back +around the same post, and over to the post on the opposite side and +repeat. This will leave two stitches on each post. In knitting flat +webs, two stitches must always be left on the end posts, and these two +are carried over the third stitch and dropped over the post in working +back and forth. + +It requires eleven yards of yarn to make one yard of flat web on the +two-post knitter. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Circular Mat + + +A mat five inches in diameter requires two and one-half yards of round +web. Start sewing with the piece of worsted hanging from the end of the +web. Coil and sew in place by taking up the underhalf of a stitch on the +right, then the underhalf of a stitch on the left side usually called +"ball stitch." Continue alternating from right to left, taking up one +stitch at a time except when it is necessary to widen; then sew two +stitches of the web into one in the mat. + +Run the end of sewing thread back in the sewing to fasten it. When +starting with a new sewing thread, put the needle in one inch back from +where sewing ended and run it through the work to where the last stitch +was taken. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Ball for Baby + + +Use round web. Start with end of web and sew and coil as for round mat. +Widen only when necessary to keep it from drawing in too quickly. When +desired width or center of ball is reached, fill with tissue paper or a +ball of soft cotton. The sewing is then continued and each row narrowed +off by taking two stitches in part already sewed and one in the web. +When the same number of rows is narrowed the filling should be entirely +covered. The end left over will serve as a cord for the ball. + +Flat web may be used by taking twelve pieces three inches long and +sewing them together--alternating color and white, if desired. Run a +draw-thread around the bottom and fill with paper or cotton; then run a +draw-thread around the top. Finish with a cord made of a piece of round +web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Muff + + +This will require three yards of round web. Sew the web into a +rectangular piece three inches wide and five inches long. + +Join the three-inch ends together and draw up the ends a little to form +the muff. Finish with cord to go around the neck. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Collarette + + +Round web five yards. Measure the doll's neck for collar. Gradually +widen each row in the back. Bring the third row of web down in front to +form the tabs; then up to the back of collarette and finish the back, +bringing the last row down in front into the tabs. + +Paper patterns may be used as a guide, but children should be encouraged +to draw and cut their own patterns. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Tam O' Shanter Cap + + +Measure the doll's head and make the top of the crown twice the diameter +of the head. It is sewed in the same way as the circular mat. When the +desired width of crown is obtained, begin the under side of the crown by +narrowing off--that is, taking two stitches in the crown and sewing them +into one stitch in the web. Continue until the desired opening for the +head is obtained. Two rows of web will complete the headband. Finish +with a pompon on top. + +Use round web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Baby's Rattle + + +The foundation ring is made of a piece of splint or flat pith fifteen +inches long. Form this into a ring, having the ends lap two inches. + +Wrap this with knitting cotton or yarn, being careful to keep winding +even. When the winding is completed, draw the end of cotton underneath +the winding with a needle to fasten it. + +Use three pieces of round web for spokes. Fasten all three together in +the center. Bells may be sewed on the outside or inside of the ring. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Toboggan Cap + + +To make a cap five inches long and four inches wide, knit eighty-four +inches of flat web. Begin five inches from the end of the web, turn and +sew into a rectangular form five inches wide and eight inches long. + +Join the five-inch ends, and draw in the top with the needle and a piece +of the material from which the cap was made. After securing the top, +twist and fold the piece of yarn remaining for a cord and fasten a +number of strands of yarn through the loop for a tassel. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Child's Bath or Bedroom Slippers + + +Length of sole, five and one-half inches. It is well to have the soles +before beginning to sew. They can be secured at any store. + +Each slipper requires two and one-half yards of round web. Start at the +back of the heel (A, of illustration), and make the first two rows three +inches high, then gradually shorten the next three rows, and keep each +row this height until the instep is finished. The first row on the vamp +(B, of illustration) is made one inch higher than the side. Each row is +then gradually shortened, the last row being three-fourths of an inch +high (C, of illustration). This will complete one-half of the slipper. + +The other half is made in just the reverse way by continuing the sewing +from the toe (C, of illustration) back to the heel, taking care that +each row is exactly the same height as the corresponding row on the +opposite side. + +Join the back of the heel and sew to the soles before closing the vamp +in front. Sew vamp up the center by catching corresponding loops +together. Make cord and tassel to go around the top, as in illustration +of finished slippers. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Small Mittens + + +Sixty inches of flat web will be required for each mitten. Cut off eight +pieces six inches long. In cutting, clip just one stitch and run the +ends across, and sew them into a cylindrical form. Draw in the top with +a needle and a piece of the material and fasten securely. Leave an +opening on one side for the thumb. + +The thumb is made of three pieces sewed together. The longest piece is +three inches and the others each two and three-fourths inches long. In +sewing it into the mitten, have the longest piece come down toward the +wrist. Gradually form and sew it in place. Draw in the top and fasten +securely. + + +CORD + +This is made of round web, knitted the desired length. The length will +vary a little according to size of the child, but four and one-half feet +is a good length. The mittens are fastened to the ends of the cord. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Hood + + +This requires two yards of round web. + +Start with the end of the web and sew into a circular form for the +crown. (See illustration A.) The sixth row is brought down to within one +inch of the center of the back. Turn and sew around to within one inch +from the center of the back on the opposite side. This will leave two +inches free in the back of the hood. Turn and continue sewing in this +way for five rows, which will form the side of hood. + +The remaining part of the web is then brought around the face of the +hood and across the back, as one would sew a cord. + +Finish with cord and tassel for tie-strings. A rosette of yarn may be +made for the top or side. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Coat or Jacket + + +This may be made of round or flat web. + +The coat is begun at the under-arm seam _a_. For a coat five inches long +begin three inches from the end of the web to make the first turn. Sew +from this turn to the starting end of the web _b_, fasten the sewing +thread and cut it off. The second row is made eleven inches long, or +long enough to go over the shoulder and down the back, _b_ to _c_. + +Sew four rows in this way to form the front and part of the back; then +four rows five inches long for the back; then four more rows eleven +inches long for the other shoulder and front _d_ to _e_. Sew the fifth +or last row up three inches for the other under-arm seam. + +Join the under-arm seams, leaving an opening of two inches for sleeves +if they are desired. If not, the armhole and neck can be finished off +with some contrasting color. + +[Illustration] + +For the sleeves, measure the length of the doll's arm and make the first +row this length. Make each row a little longer than the preceding row +until the top or shoulder part is reached, then gradually shorten each +row until the desired width is obtained. The last row should be the +same length as the first row. When sewing them in the coat, have the +longest part come at the top of the shoulder. Buttons are made by +braiding yarn and sewing it in the form of buttons. + +A cord for fastening is made by braiding, or twisting and folding the +yarn. It is then sewed into loops or used as cord and tassel for tying. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Bootees + + +Knit two yards of round web for each bootee. + +Start two inches from the end of the web for the first turn. Sew into an +elliptical form three and one-half inches long for the sole. Sew two +more rows without widening for the sides of the foot; then sew two rows +across the front for the toe; the third row bring all around the top to +complete the foot. + +The leg of the bootee is made by bringing the web directly upward three +inches before making the first turn. Make each row three inches high and +catch each row into the top of the foot while sewing. Put cord and +tassel around where the leg and foot meet. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Little Boy Blue + + +Make coat according to directions given for doll's coat. + +Measure the length of the doll's leg for the length of the trousers. Use +flat web and sew it into two rectangular pieces wide enough to make each +leg a little full. + +Join the inside seams part way and then join the open edge of the right +front with the open edge of the left front. Do the same with the back +edges. Put a draw-string around the top, or a piece of the web may be +used for a waistband. Put in a draw-string around the bottom of each +leg. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Little Red Riding-Hood + + +The doll shown in illustration is ten and one-half inches tall. To make +cape and hood in one piece sew two rows of flat web, six and one-half +inches long, for the center of the back. These two rows will also give +the desired fulness. The next five rows are made nineteen inches long, +or long enough to reach over the head and down to form the two sides of +the cape and hood. After these five rows are completed, sew five rows +six inches long on each side of the front of the cape, to make it wide +enough to meet across the chest. + +Close the cape and the hood in the back. The part above the six and a +half inch rows will form the hood. Draw in the top of these two short +rows and sew to the base of the hood. Put in a draw-string around the +top of the right side of the cape in front, carry it around the base of +the hood, around the top of the cape on the left side and tie in front. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Skirt + + +This skirt is five inches long and made of flat web. The first and last +rows are made one and a quarter inch shorter than the other rows forming +the skirt. These two rows are sewed together when the skirt is finished, +thus forming the placket and also the desired fulness in the back. + +There are sixteen rows in all. Each two, when sewed together, form a +scollop at the top and bottom where the web is turned. In sewing care +must be taken to have each row the exact length of the preceding row +except in the first and last row. + +The top of the skirt may be finished with a draw-string or a band made +from cloth. The bottom of the skirt may be left as it is, or be finished +with a blanket stitch of some contrasting color. The skirt requires five +yards of flat web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Little Boy's Hat + + +Measure the child's head for the size of the hat. Make the crown of the +hat one-half of this measurement. If the child's head measures +twenty-two inches around, make the crown eleven inches in diameter. The +crown is circular and is made in the same way as the circular mat, +taking two stitches of web and sewing them into one stitch of the crown +already sewed to keep it flat. When it is of the desired size, begin the +side by sewing one stitch of the web into one of the crown, at the same +time holding the web to be sewed directly under the last row in the +crown. + +Make the side twice as long as the desired height of the hat. For +instance, if the desired height is to be three and a half inches, make +the side seven inches long, as one-half of this measurement is turned +up. + +Two colors may be used, one color for the crown and one for the side. +Red and black or red and white are pretty combinations. + +A doll's hat of the same style, the crown three and a half inches in +diameter, requires five yards of round web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Child's Muffler + + +This is a combination of flat and round web. Knit ten inches of flat +web, change to round web by bringing the yarn across the center of the +hole in the knitter to the opposite post, and knit ten inches, or the +number of inches necessary to go around the neck. Change again to flat +web, knit ten inches and clip off. + +Make seven such pieces and sew them together to form the muffler. The +round web will form the neck part. + +Do not remove from the knitter while changing from flat to round web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Child's Hood + + +This is made much in the same way as the doll's hood. Make the back of +the hood five inches in diameter, then turn the web and form the side. +Sew around to within four inches of the place of turning on the opposite +side and turn again. So continue until the side is sufficiently wide to +cover the child's head. Extend this side three inches beyond the desired +width, widening on each row of the extended part to give fulness. This +widening may be omitted, and the extended part turned back, leaving it +perfectly plain, if desired. Trim with rosettes or pompons made of the +same material as the hood. + +Turn back the extended part and tack to the hood. Sew a pompon or a +rosette of yarn over the top of the sewing stitch. For tie-strings, use +cord and tassel, or ribbon. + +The hood requires from twenty-five to thirty yards. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Little Girl's Hat + + +This requires twenty-five yards of round web. Measure the child's head +for the size of the hat. Start the crown in the same way as the circular +mat. When it is five inches in diameter, gradually turn the crown, while +sewing the next five or six rows. + +When the desired width is reached, begin forming the side by sewing one +stitch of web into one stitch of the crown, keeping each row exactly +under the preceding row until the desired height is obtained; then +gradually widen to form the rim, which is three and a half or four +inches broad. + +Do not widen any on the last two rows, but draw the web a little tighter +while sewing to make the edge of the rim roll or turn inward. + +Finish with cord and tassels around the crown, or pompons on the right +or left side of the front of the hat. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Sweater + + +This is made of five and one-half yards of flat web cut into pieces of a +desired length. Cut three pieces seven inches long for the front. One +inch and a half of this will also form the neck. When cutting, clip only +one stitch and pull out the ends. + +The next two pieces are cut five and one-half inches long and sewed one +on each side of the front one inch and a half below the top end. Each +succeeding row is made a little shorter to form the shoulder, the +shortest pieces forming the outside edges. + +Make the back of the sweater in the same way and sew front and back +together, leaving one and a quarter inch opening on each side for the +sleeves. + +The sleeve is made of five pieces, the longest piece being three inches, +and the shortest two and one-half inches long. Sew these pieces together +to form the sleeve. When sewing it into the sweater, place the longest +part at the shoulder seam and stretch the armhole while sewing it in. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Wristlets + + +These are made of round or flat web. Each wristlet requires one and +one-half yards. + +Measure five inches, the length of the wristlet, and turn. Start sewing +from this point and sew to the end of the five inches and turn again. + +Continue until enough rows are sewed to make the wristlet the desired +width, which in this model is two and one-half inches. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Shoulder Shawl + + +This may be made of round or flat web, and of any desired size. If the +shawl is to be thirty-six inches long, clip the web into pieces of this +length and sew them together until the shawl is of the desired width, or +the web may simply be turned at the end of each row, then proceed with +the sewing. + +The fringe for the ends is made by cutting the yarn into lengths twice +as long as the desired length of the fringe--that is, if the fringe is +to be five inches long, cut the yarn into pieces ten inches long. + +Fold each ten-inch piece in two, slip the folded end through a stitch in +the end of the shawl and draw the two ends of the piece through the loop +thus formed and pull tight. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Carriage Robe + + +This robe is ten inches wide and eighteen inches long, and is made of +four pieces of flat web, each piece three yards long. Any number of +pieces of either round or flat web may be used, and the robe made wider +and longer if desired. + +Measure fifteen inches of web and turn it. Begin sewing from this, turn +down to the end of the fifteen inches and again turn, bringing the web +around over the end. Care must be taken while turning to keep the ends +perfectly flat. + +When the three yards are used begin the other parts in the same way. +Make four or any desired number of parts, and sew them together, +alternating the colors. Put a tassel made of the same material on the +rounded end of each part. + +If round web is used it will require more for each part, for the round +is not as wide as the flat web. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Child's Leggings + + +Leggings may be made of round or flat web. Measure five inches above the +knee down to the vamp of the shoe for the length of the front part of +the legging. This gives the length of the first row. + +Turn the web and begin to sew from this point up to the top, then turn +again and sew down to the toe. Continue in this way until the front part +is two and one-half inches wide. + +Bring the remaining rows down to within two inches of the end of the +toe, until the legging is wide enough to go around the child's leg, then +sew to the opposite side of the front. Sew a piece of tape to the +instep. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Muffler + + +This may be made of round or flat web. Make the part to go around the +neck first. In this model the neck band is ten inches long and three +inches wide. Sew four rows of flat or six rows of round web for the +neck. Begin three inches from the ends to make the front. Gradually +shorten each row until it is of the desired length. + +Make loops of twisted yarn and sew to one end of the neck band to slip +over the buttons. Sew the buttons on the opposite end and on the inside +where they will be hidden while the muffler is being worn. + + + + +Made of Knitting Cotton + + +Knitting cotton can be secured at any department store. It comes in +colors white, black, red, navy blue, and mixed colors. This is not as +elastic as worsted and is used where strength is required, such as bags, +hammocks, wash-cloths, etc. It is very inexpensive and can be used to +great advantage. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Jumping Rope + + +Select a piece of jute, or stout cord the length of the desired rope. +Drop one end of this and one end of the knitting cotton through the hole +in the knitter (use knitter having four posts), and draw it out at the +other end three inches. Bring the cotton leading from the ball around +each post once, then proceed with the knitting, covering the cord or +jute which is used as a core or foundation for the rope. + +Cords for pillow tops may also be made in this way. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Toy Horse Reins + + +These are made of coarse knitting cotton on four-post knitters. Knit a +piece three yards long for the reins. The children measure each other +for the breast-piece, which will be from ten to twelve inches long. This +is fastened to the reins nine inches below the center of the neck on +each side, to allow the head to pass through easily. + +Two colors may be used in knitting the reins, working around first with +one color, then with the other. + +Fourteen yards of knitting cotton will make one yard of web on the +four-post knitter. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Wash Cloth + + +This is made of white knitting cotton. It requires nine yards of web for +a cloth ten by twelve inches. Measure twelve inches of web, turn and sew +toward the end. + +When the twelve-inch piece is sewed turn again and sew. Continue in this +way until the desired size is obtained. + +With a piece of the cotton make a loop at one corner by which to hang +it. + + + + +[Illustration] + +School Bag + + +This may be made of round or flat web. A bag twelve inches deep and +fourteen inches wide requires thirty yards. Measure twenty-four inches +of web and turn. Begin sewing from this turn to the end of the +twenty-four inches then turn again. So continue until this oblong piece +measures fourteen by twenty-four inches. Fold this in two and sew up the +sides. This will avoid any seam in the bottom of the bag. + +Make handles in the same way as for jumping-rope, or a double thickness +of the web may be used for each handle and sewed to the top sides of the +bag. Finish by sewing a piece of the web around the top. + +Laundry bags, sewing bags, and little bags for holding paints and +water-dish may be made in similar way. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Chimney Cleaner + + +This is made of white knitting cotton. It requires two yards of flat or +three yards of round web. + +Secure a piece of stick or better still a piece of half-inch dowel ten +or twelve inches long, for a handle. Cut a groove with a knife around +one end to keep the web from slipping off. + +Sew the web into loops three and a half or four inches long. Draw them +in around the end of the handle with the sewing string just in the +groove; then wind the sewing string around two or three times, tie, and +clip off the ends. + + + + +[Illustration] + +Doll's Hammock + + +This is made of flat web. A hammock eight by twelve inches requires five +and one-half yards. Sew this into an oblong piece twelve inches long and +eight inches wide. + +Secure a piece of cardboard three inches longer than the oblong piece +and one inch wider. + +Round off the corners with a pair of scissors (see illustration), and +cut notches or slits in ends one-half inch apart. Sew two brass rings in +the center of one side, and on the other baste the oblong piece which is +to be used for the hammock. Then with a needle and a long piece of the +knitting cotton begin making the ends of the hammock by securing one end +of the sewing string to the hammock and bring it over the end of the +cardboard in the first slit from the end and through the ring on the +opposite side of cardboard; back over cardboard, through second slit and +through hammock. + +So continue until one end is finished. Do the same with the other end. +These strings may be held in place by putting three or four rows of +weaving just underneath the rings. + +Clip the basting stitches and remove from the cardboard. Make fringe as +for shawl. + + + +***END OF THE PROJECT GUTENBERG EBOOK SPOOL KNITTING*** + + +******* This file should be named 22029.txt or 22029.zip ******* + + +This and all associated files of various formats will be found in: +https://www.gutenberg.org/dirs/2/2/0/2/22029 + + + +Updated editions will replace the previous one--the old editions +will be renamed. + +Creating the works from public domain print editions means that no +one owns a United States copyright in these works, so the Foundation +(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without +permission and without paying copyright royalties.

It exists +because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from +people in all walks of life. + +Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the +assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's +goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will +remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project +Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure +and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations. +To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation +and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4 +and the Foundation web page at https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/pglaf. + + +Section 3.

The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification +number is 64-6221541.

Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg +Literary Archive Foundation + +Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide +spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of +increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be +freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest +array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations +($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt +status with the IRS. + +The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating +charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United +States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a +considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up +with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations +where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To +SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any +particular state visit https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + +While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we +have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition +against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who +approach us with offers to donate. + +International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make +any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from +outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff. + +Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation +methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other +ways including checks, online payments and credit card donations. +To donate, please visit: +https://www.gutenberg.org/fundraising/donate + + +Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic +works. + +Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm +concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared +with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project +Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support. + +Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed +editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S. +unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily +keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition. + +Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility: + + https://www.gutenberg.org + +This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm, +including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary +Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to +subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks. + |
