finished in the same way, and a border of cable or other fancy knitting put around. Or the ends may be finished off in points, using whole blocks for the purpose, and the following border may be used.
Fig. 123.
This border must be knit in pieces just fitting each point. Cast on eight stitches. In the first and every alternate row, three stitches must be knit together at the back, in the middle of the row. In order to keep the same number of stitches on the needles, one must be made at the beginning of each row. Knit as follows:
1st row: Slip one, * TB, drop the next foundation stitch off the needle, throw your thread over twice, repeat from * to the end of the row, knitting the last stitch, and not forgetting the narrowing in the middle.
2nd row: Knit plain, always putting your needle in at the back of the second made stitch.
* 3rd row: Purl, making one stitch at the beginning of the row, and knitting three together at the back, in the middle of the row.
