DESIGN FOR SILK STOCKINGS
Oriental Characters Are the Latest to
Be Used by Those Who Like
Embroidery.

Girls who are fond OF needlework
will want to embroider themselves
two or more pairs OF silk stockings
in the now fashionable Oriental de-
signs.
Select q good grade of silk stock
ing woven with thread silk, black or
any color you desire; then with a
sharp-pointed piece of tailors chalk
outline a design representing some Gu
rious Chinese or Japanese symbol
lettering or number.
These can be found In any Oriental
shop or on a Chinese laundry check.
They are not difficult to sketch, being
for the most part broad lines crossing
each other In a curious manner.
These should be slightly padded
with very soft darning cotton, so that
the center will be raised above the
outer edge. The embroidery is then
done in fine floss silk, using brilliant
red, green, yellow, purple and blue. All
colors rich in tone are effective, and
occasionally threads Of silver and gold
can be introduced in the embroidery
Care must be taken when applying
the work to colored stockings that the
colors used in the embroidery harmo-
nize with that of the stocking itself
Any color or combination OF colors
can be used on black.
Tiny beads and small flowers are
lovely when worked in rich Oriental
colors. For example, spray OF wis
taria is charming on violet silk stock
ings. Cherry blossoms on white or
green, iris on blue or yellow, and the
flaming poppy on black.
When working, an easy way to keep
the stocking taut so the embroidery
will lie smooth is to slip a china egg
or very smooth darning egg into the
stocking, then hold the silk tightly
over that as you would for ordinary
darning, The embroidery will then
be perfectly smooth when worn.

England Edward Wnslow has given brief
account of the festivities This letter bears the
date Of Dec. II. 1921 and in it Wnslow wrote:
