FRENCH WOMAN
ON KNITTING
She Gives Some Advice to American
Red Cross knitters, Especial
Iy as to Sweaters and
Wristiets.

The following bit of advice written
| by French woman will be of inter.
est to American women who are knit
ting for the soldiers and sailors:
Many papers and war organizations
issue directions for the knitting Of
warm articles such as sweaters, hel-
NETS and wristlets, to be sent to the
soldiers in the trenches. am
French woman, and having had my
husband and many relatives on the
firing line and having knitted for
them and for lot of soldiers during
the past three years, l think 1t Is my
duty to try to help our American
friends with the experience We
French women may have acquired in
those works.
Sleeveless sweaters are better than
sweaters with sleeves. on account OF
the thickness Of the knitted sleeve
inside of the coat sleeve, which may
prevent the regular circulation Of the
blood in the arms. But do not think
entirely closed sweaters such as those
asked for by the Red Cross will prove
very convenient to your soldiers
abroad. They have to be put on and
taken off over the head and II 1t is
. -'..'Si cdoys II UcCOAhS0 AuitC uAiiASNAe
when the soldiers is wounded. In
that case, and especially in the case
Of wounds in the chest, the nurses
will have to cut up the sweater In
order to remove it without moving
their patient too much, and am
afraid lot of sweaters will be lost
this way.
AS to the helmet, our soldiers In
France are forbidden to wear 1t in the
trenches as it prevents them from
nearing. So we managed a slit just
upon the ears and the men were al
lowed to wear 1t. Such a slit is very
easy to manage when knitting the hel
NETS and need not give any direc
lion about it.
do not think wristlets will prove
very efficient, and would advise
american women to knit gloves
Wristlets leave the fingers unpro
tected from the cold, and they are
with the toes, the part of the body
which gets cold the most quickly, es
pecially IL the remainder OF the hanc
kept warm. Gloves are not so diff
ncult to knit, when one gets accus
Toned to knit with four or more
needles. There is also kind of fin
ger gerless glove, called in French
Moufle," which envelopes the whole
nand and is provided with a thumb
and large slit in the middle OF the
PAIN, which enables to soldier tt
afaw out his finglers from the glove
" snoot his gun, for instance.
