+
+
+                     Swiftly, to and fro,
+                         Let your needles fly!
+                     Be not yours to know
+                         Pause, for tear or sigh.
+
+                     Stitch by stitch they grow,
+                         Garments soft and warm
+                     That will keep life’s glow
+                         In some shivering form.
+
+                     Sweater, muffler, sock,
+                         For the soldiers’ wear!
+                     List to pity’s knock—
+                         For those “over there.”
+
+                     Children’s voices, too,
+                         In the sad refrain,
+                     Wring our hearts anew,
+                         From that world of pain.
+
+                     Banish for a while
+                         Tints of brighter hue,
+                     Welcome with a smile
+                         Khaki, gray and blue.
+
+                     Days are cold and drear,
+                         Nights are long and bleak,
+                     Thoughts from home are dear,
+                         Where the cannons shriek.
+
+                     Let some simple thing,
+                         That your hand employs,
+                     Cheer and comfort bring
+                         To our gallant Boys.
+
+                     May there be no end
+                         To what love supplies!
+                     Thus their share we’ll send
+                         To our brave Allies!

+stitches of the instep needles on to one needle. Pick up and knit the 16
+stitches along the other side of the heel flap, and knit on to this
+needle 9 stitches from the first needle.
+
+Knit 1 round plain.
+
+_The Gussets_—* On the first needle, knit to within 3 stitches of the

+Cast on 60 stitches (20 on each needle), rib in rows of knit 2, purl 2,
+or knit 3, purl 1, for 4 inches. Knit plain until the leg measures 11
+inches including the ribbing. Divide the stitches so that one needle
+contains 30 stitches with 15 on each of the other 2 needles.
+
+_To Make Heel_—Work forward and backward along the needle with the
+greatest number of stitches, slip 1, purl 1. Every row is the same, knit
+16 rows and finish along the inside row. _To turn the heel flap._ Begin
+on an outside row. Slip 1, knit 11, * knit 2 together, knit 2, knit 2
+together, knit plain to end of row * then purl along the inside row.
+_Outside Row._ Slip 1, knit 10 and repeat * to *. Continue knitting the
+inside and outside rows, knitting 1 less after the slip one in each
+outside row until there are 12 stitches on the needle. Finish along an
+inside row. _To pick up the sides of the Heel Flap._ Pick up and knit
+the inner loops of the chain at the left side of the flap, adding these
+to the 12 already on the heel needle.
+
+Knit along the front of the sock, working the stitches on to one needle
+ready for the instep. Pick up and knit the inner loops of the chain at
+the right-hand side of the flap, and take off half of the 12 heel
+stitches on to this needle, dividing the stitches evenly on the 2 heel
+needles. The foot is knitted plain.
+
+Now count the stitches in the whole round. The _difference_ between this
+number and the number of stitches in a round at the ankle will give the
+number of stitches to be decreased at the instep. Then divide number of
+stitches to be decreased by two and this will give the number of rounds
+in which intakes must be worked.
+
+To work round of instep decreasings. Knit to within 2 stitches of the
+end of the left-hand heel needle, knit these 2 together. Knit along the
+instep needle. At the beginning of the right-hand heel slip 1, knit 1,
+and pull the slipped stitch over the knitted one. Knit to the end of
+round. Go on decreasing in this way until you have 4 consecutive rounds,
+then every other round until you have 15 stitches on each heel needle;
+the number of stitches on the 2 heel needles should be equal to the
+instep needle. Continue knitting plain rounds until the foot measures 9
+inches, then commence to shape the toe, by beginning on the instep
+needle with 30 stitches.
+
+1st round. * Slip 1, knit 2 together, † slip 1, knit 1; repeat from † to
+within 3 stitches of the end of the needle, then knit 2 together, knit
+1. The 2 back needles with 15 stitches on each are to be treated as one
+needle and worked as the instep needle, therefore repeat from *. This
+completes the round.
+
+2nd round. † knit 1, slip 1, repeat from † to end of round, knitting the
+last stitch.
+
+3rd round. † Slip 1, knit 1, repeat from † to end of round, knitting the

+On the first side needle, knit to within 3 of the end, knit 2 together,
+knit 1, knit the front needle; 2nd side needle, knit 1, slip 1, knit 1,
+pass the slipped stitch over the knitted one, knit to end of needle.
+
+Decrease in this manner every 2nd round until there are 15 on each of
+the side needles, reducing them to correspond with the front needle,
+making 10 decreasings for the instep.
+
+Knit 48 or 50 rounds from the last decreasing for the length of foot and
+then decrease for the toe in the following way:

+Turn work over, slip 1, knit 4, slip 1, knit 1, and pass it over slipped
+stitch, knit 1. Turn, slip 1, purl 5, purl 2 together, purl 1. Turn,
+slip 1, knit 6, slip 1, and pass it over slipped stitch, knit 1.
+Continue working toward the sides of the heel in this manner, leaving 1
+more stitch between decreases on every row until all the stitches are
+worked in. There should then be 15 stitches on the needle. Pick up 13
+stitches on side of heel; now knit the 25 stitches on 2d and 3d needle
+on to one needle, which becomes your 2d needle; with your 3d needle pick
+up the 13 stitches on other side of heel, and knit 7 stitches off your
+1st needle so that you will now have 21 stitches on the 1st needle, 25
+stitches on the 2d needle, and 20 stitches on 3d needle. 1st needle
+(_a_) knit to within 3 stitches of end, knit 2 together, knit 1. 2d

+Repeat _a_, _b_, _c_ and _d_ until you have 13 stitches on 1st needle—25
+stitches on 2d, 12 stitches on 3d. Knit plain for 4½ inches. 1st needle
+(_e_) knit 10 stitches—knit 2 together, knit 1. 2d needle (_f_) knit 1,

+Repeat _e_, _f_, _g_ and _h_ 5 times, then narrow every other row until
+you have 5 stitches on your 1st needle, 9 stitches on your 2d needle and
+4 stitches on your 3d needle. Knit the 5 stitches on your 1st needle on
+to your 3d. Your work is now all on 2 needles opposite each other. Break
+off yarn leaving 12-inch end. Thread into worsted needle and proceed to
+weave the front and back together as follows:
+
+Pass worsted needle through 1st stitch * of front knitting needle as if
+knitting and slip stitch off—pass through 2d stitch as if
+purling—leaving stitch on, pull thread through 1st stitch of back needle
+as if purling, slip stitch off, purl thread through 2d stitch of back

+Cast on 51 stitches, 18 on each of 2 needles, 15 on the 3d, knit 2, purl
+2, for 3½ inches for the wrist; then knit plain for 1 inch, or 9 times
+around. Shift the stitches so that you have 17 on each needle and begin
+the thumb where the end of your yarn should start. Knit 1, increase as
+follows (insert the needle in the stitch, make a stitch in back of same
+stitch and make another stitch, now slip the stitch off the needle, this
+gives you 2 stitches in 1).
+
+Knit plain until you come to last 2 stitches. On 3d needle, increase 1
+and knit last one then knit round once, widening 1 stitch each side,
+until 24 stitches added for the thumb being careful always to make an
+extra stitch in the one you last made. When you have 24 stitches, knit
+one round until you come to where the thumb stitches begin; tie the 24
+stitches on a string to hold until the finger part is done. Cast on 10
+stitches on the needle where the yarn is, and knit once around. On the
+next round narrow one stitch at the beginning and end of the 10
+stitches; do this for 5 rounds till you have again 17 stitches on each
+needle. The object of the 10 extra stitches is to form a gore. Knit
+plain for 3½ inches, begin to narrow, knit 2 together at beginning and
+end of each needle for 1 round. Knit a round plain, then a narrowing
+round, so on alternately until 2 stitches are remaining on each needle,
+break off your yarn. Leave the end long enough to thread a needle and
+draw through 6 stitches and fasten securely on wrong side. Now take the
+24 stitches of the thumb and the 10 of the gore and put 18 stitches on
+one needle (10 of the gore and 4 on each side of it) and 8 on each of
+the other 2 needles. Knit 1 round plain. Then for each succeeding round,
+till the gore is gone, narrow 1 stitch at the beginning and end of the
+10. Knit plain around for 1¾ inches and narrow as in the finger part.
+Make other mitten to correspond.

+until the heel stitches are all in one needle, narrowing in the center
+of the last row to reduce the number of stitches to 16. Pick up 20
+stitches along the side of the heel flap, knitting them as you pick them
+up, then knit across the instep, taking the 30 stitches on to one
+needle, pick up and knit 20 stitches from the second side of the heel
+flap, and knit off on to this third needle 8 stitches from the heel
+needle. The number of stitches on the 2 side needles will now be equal,
+but the stitches counted together will exceed the number on the instep
+needle.

+knit 5 rounds plain.
+
+_To make the Toe_—* Slip 1, knit 1, pass the slipped stitch over, knit

+
+                 CHILD’S ¾-LENGTH SOCK, WITH SCOTCH TOP
+
+
+4 To 6 Years
+
+         2 Ounces of 3-Ply Fingering
+         4 Steel Knitting Needles No. 17, Pointed at Both Ends
+
+Set up 73 stitches (24 each on 3 needles) knit 9 rounds plain. 10th
+round: * Bring the wool forward as in purling and knit 2 together repeat
+from * then knit to end of round. Knit 11th round plain and continue for
+8 rounds. 20th round: fold over the set up round of knitting on inside,
+it must exactly meet the last round. Knit the 1 stitch of the 19th round
+and 1st set up stitch together; 2nd stitch of 19th round and 2nd set up
+stitch together and continue all around. This makes a hem and the 10th
+round forms a scalloped edge. Great care must be taken to get 1st and
+last rounds even. Now knit 3 rounds plain and the 24th to the 48th round
+(inclusive) also knit plain. Work in ribbing on 49th round by knitting 3
+and purling 1 alternately and continue to rib 76 rounds like 49th round.
+The next round work the ribbing as far as the 4th plain rib on the 3rd
+needle; of this rib knit the first 2 stitches together, knit 1, purl 1
+(for the seam stitch), knit 1, slip 1, knit 1, draw the slipped stitch
+over and then work the rest of the round as usual. Knit the next 3
+rounds without decreasing and after every 3rd round knit together the
+3rd and 2nd stitches before the seam stitch and the 2nd and 3rd stitches
+after it. You should have 16 stitches on the needle. Now work 24 more
+rounds of ribbing without decreasing and divide the stitches so as to
+have 15 stitches before the seam and 16 after it; making 32 in all. The
+other 2 needles should each have 16 stitches. Knit these 32 stitches on
+the back needle; turn the work and purl 1 row and knit 1 row
+alternately, until you have 12 rows of these stitches.
+
+_To Work Heel_—Knit 2 together at the beginning and end of every plain
+row until you have 12 stitches left. In every following row pick up the
+next stitch down the side after the last worked stitch on the needle and
+knit or purl, according to the row, till all the stitches are taken up
+and the heel is closed. On reaching top of 12 row pick up the stitches
+down the side of these rows. Go on ribbing as usual on the 2 other
+needles; pick up the stitches at side of 12 following rows then knit
+heel round to the front ribbing. Continue this ribbing until toe is
+reached.
+
+_For the Instep_—Decrease at each side of heel every other row by
+knitting together 2 stitches after the last purl rib. Knit the heel
+except the last 2 stitches before the first purled rib; slip the 1st of
+these, knit the next stitch and draw slipped stitch over. Go on
+decreasing until the stitches on the heel needle are reduced to 32 as
+they were in the ankle before beginning the heel. Knit 30 rounds plain
+knitting on sole and ribbing on front of foot. After this continue
+ribbing and do plain knitting.
+
+_To Shape Toe_—In every other round decrease at beginning of right-hand
+sole needle and at end of left-hand sole needle; also at each end of
+front needle. Knit 2 together, knit 1. Repeat these 2 decreasings on the
+front needles. When you have reduced the stitches to 8 on the sole and
+front, put needles together and cast off the stitches. Be sure to carry
+end of wool to wrong side of a wool needle, and fasten by running it in
+and out before cutting off.

+          CROCHETED AND KNITTED AMBULANCE OR HOSPITAL BLANKETS
+
+                   (_Courtesy of Mrs. Horace Leeds_)
+
+
+The Ambulance or Hospital blankets can be made up of all colors of wool,
+several colors in one block or plain blocks. The idea is to use up wool
+left from garments made of bright colors. The Cross and Flag centres
+were designed by Mrs. Leeds.
+
+
+
+
+                  CROCHET BLANKET WITH CROSS IN CENTRE
+
+
+56 by 78 Inches
+
+                          4-Fold Wool, 4 Lbs.
+                          Bone Hook No. 5
+
+Single crochet 8 strips—7 inches wide—56 inches. Length per strip—78.
+Sew strips together on right side with black patent thread. Single
+crochet each seam with black 4-Fold wool. Finish edge with small shell
+having 5 double crochet in each shell.
+
+Crocheted blocks—6½ by 6½ inches.—108 blocks. Cross in centre crocheted
+in one piece is equal to 5 blocks. 5 strips of 9 blocks each above the
+cross. 4 strips of 9 blocks each below the cross. 4 blocks in each strip
+to right and left above and below center of cross. 3 blocks each side of
+center of cross. Sew blocks in strips on right side with black patent
+thread. Single crochet each seam with 4 black fold wool. Edge with small
+shell.
+
+
+
+
+                 KNITTED BLOCKS FOR BLANKETS, 6½ by 6½
+
+
+                         No. 5 Knitting Needles
+
+Join and finish same as in directions for crocheted blanket, cut a piece
+of cardboard measuring 6½ by 6½ inches and knit blocks or crochet blocks
+to fit cardboard. I find it is the safest way to measure correctly as
+everyone does not knit or crochet alike.

+the last 2 stitches before the first purled rib; slip the 1st of these, knit the
+next stitch and draw slipped stitch over. Go on decreasing until the stitches
