Helpful Information
stitch gauge ‐ Important ‐ Knitted garments are planned on the basis of working to a specified number of stitches and rows to 1 inch; this
is referred to as the GAUGE. Required gauge is given at beginning of instructions. If this gauge is not obtained the finished garment will
not be the correct size. The size needles recommended will give the average knitter the correct gauge. However, if you do not obtain the
gauge required, change the size needles to conform to the tension of your individual knitting; if your knitting is too loose use smaller size
needles to tighten gauge; if your knitting is too tight, use larger size needles to loosen gauge. You MUST get gauge given to insure proper
size of finished garment.

measurements of garments ‐ The sizes of garments in this book are based on the actual body measurements given below. In the
instructions an allowance has been made over the actual body measurements to give sufficient ease and insure correct fit. This allowance
varies according to the style of garment, stitch, type of yarn and gauge of knitting. To determine which size garment you should make,
take your own accurate body measurements. Then use instructions for size with body measurements nearest to your own body
measurements. If adjustment is necessary be sure to allow the same number of inches over actual body measurements as allowed on
garment you intend to make. See body measurement charts below.

An asterisk (*) indicates that the instructions immediately following are to be repeated the given number of times in addition to the

markers ‐ Make a small loop of contrasting color yarn and place on needle at point or points indicated in instructions. Slip loop from left
to right needle without knitting.

blocking or steaming ‐ To give a more tailored finish to knitted or crocheted garments it is preferable to block each piece separately. Care
should be taken to block pieces to knitted shape. If the garment is sewn together first and blocked carefully after assembling, the result
will also be satisfactory.

to block separate pieces ‐ Lay pieces flat on pressing board, wrong side up, pin edges to board. Steam well with moderately hot iron over
a wet cloth, taking care not to let weight of iron rest upon any one spot. After blocking leave pinned until thoroughly dry. Do not steam
ribbing.

to block finished garment ‐ Lay flat on pressing board, wrong side out. Steam first one side and when dry, steam other side.
After blocking leave pinned until thoroughly dry, then steam all seams and crocheted edges. Do not steam ribbing.

to block skirts ‐ Pin to board as above and block. When thoroughly dry, remove from board. Pin and block other half. Steam out creases.

casing for elastic for skirts ‐ Holding wrong side of skirt toward you, join yarn on top edge of skirt, ch 5, skip 1 st, 1 slip st in next st at left
in 6th row below, ch 5, skip 1 st, 1 slip st at top of skirt in 4th st at left of first st, ch 5, continue in this way around top of skirt, join with
