Crochet as Popular Handiwork

girl is now using on her doll-the
very same saque she herself wore
as a baby. For crib or carriage
robes, also, the crochet stitches
and use with heavier woods re-
suit in coverings of great beauty
and warmth. These will outwear
any bought small quilts, and have
the added advantage of keeping
their appearance when washed
which cannot be said of other
wooden knitted goods. Nothing
could be more practical than to
make the young toddler a COM
plete and matching set of cro-
cheted cap, jacket and carriage
cover, in a preferred color.
On the other hand, in utilizing
fine cotton and linen threads and
a steel needle for her crochet
work, the designer has the most
ample opportunity to duplicate
fine lace effects. For crochet
work with fine threads gives the
appearance of lace as made on
loom or pillow, but at fraction
of that effort. Again, where even
the finest lace is fragile, difficult
to cleanse and expensive, crochet
lace is durable, can be washed by
ordinary laundering, and costs
only the otherwise uncounted
time of the woman doing it. A
yoke, a camisole, or other personal
lingerie adorned with crochet, has
the utmost effect of sheerness and
daintiness. Such will outwear
about three of the ordinary lace
landings or yokes.
And there is in addition, the
feeling that 81 made it myself"
about such piece of personal
fancy work, that makes it more
valuable to the woman wearing it.
If the woman has chance to work
out her Imagination in a rose, a
butterfly, or other design, she has
the satisfaction Of seeing her idea
