Knitted Things Demand
Extra Care in Washing

Have you succumbed to the knit
or not, you certainly have sweaters,
knitted suits, ETC., for who can be
without them these days? They're
so attractive, and almost indispens-
able for sport and everyday wear.
and If washable, as many of them
are, it's so easy to keep them clean.
Before washing a new sweater,
test it to be sure the colors are fast,
by squeezing an inconspicuous por-
ton in clear, lukewarm water for
FIVE minutes or so.
Knitted things often get out of
shape when wet, so to insure restor-
ing them to the correct proportions
just draw an outline on clean, wrap
ping paper before wetting. Incl
dentally, the ideal time to draw this
outline is when the sweater is new.
before you have stretched the ell
bows, etc. Then this outline may
be used each time you wash the
sweater.
Remove unwashable buttons, buck
les, ETC., and turn the sweater
wrong-side out. Make rich suds with
mild, neutral soap flakes; always
have the suds and rinse waters luke
warm or cool. Put in the sweater
and wash by squeezing the suds
through and through the material.
Never rub. Wash quickly. Do not
soak colored garments.
Thoroughly rinse in plenty of luke
warm or cool water Squeeze out
the waterfront twist. Then roll
the sweater in a dry turkish towel,
knead for a moment and unroll.
Don't leave colored garments rolled
up while wet. Ease the sweater into
shape on the outline. If the sweater
tends to shrink, pin it in place on
a firm surface as on corrugated
pasteboard, or an old rug. Use pins
which will not rust.
When the sweater is dry remove
it from the outline. turn it right
side out and press it lightly, using
a damp cloth to remove wrinkles
and pin marks.

Watch pleats Already in Paris they
are enjoying a big vogue. Many of
the most successful evening gowns,
especially those of monotone pastel
chiffon, have skirts which are fine

in the day and the night for evening
frocks fairly revel in bow trimmings.
The big bow which fastens the little
capelet on the I.anvin gown is one
way of interpreting the bow move

evening gown of pink satin sketched
to the right gives an entirely different
impression of how bows and bows are
being employed in the most fetching"
of the seasons modes.

Those Mesh Pocketbooks

Speaking of mesh-you might as
