It is published with the hope that it will prove a pleasure and a help in very many homes. Home Work contains a great variety of choice designs for the crochet and knitting needle, and some valuable recipes for the toilet. Some of the crochet and knitting patterns are very simple, and some as elaborate as could be desired. All are useful, and each has an attractive- ness of its own. An earnest effort has been made to avoid erroi*s in the preparation of the material for this work, and it is be- lieved that a fair measure of success has crowned the labors of all concerned in its publication. It is certainly the most elaborate book of the kind ever placed before the ladies of this country ; full of good things, artistic, ornamental, a convenient volume, a lasting joy. Home Work is not put forth as a guide to the art of crocheting and knitting, but as a companion for those who love to crochet and knit. It does not teach the rudiments of needle work, but it comes to aid and delight IV PREFACE. those who, having learned that pretty stitches may be made with the crochet or knitting needle, desire to go on to the accomplishment of something artistic and useful. Directions are given for making the narrowest edging, and the fuD-sizod counterpane, the most intricate laces and the simplest trimming. The designs for the various articles of wearing apparel will be found, it is believed, especially acceptable. It may be well to remind the reader that if difficulties are met with in the working of any of the patterns, the necessary assistance may be obtained by referring to the directions at the commence- ment of each part, where the abbreviations used through- out the book and the method of making a great variety of stitches are fully explained. The recipes contained in Home Work do not belong to the book proper, but they are added because they can be recommended, in the hope that they will take the place on the toilet table of injurious articles, and for the fur- ther reason that they will prove the saving of many dollars to those who have not the money to throw away on expensive preparations.

To work the open shell stitch, leave the loop of the 6th s. c, just work- ed, untouched on the npedle, pass the needle through both vertical looj s of that 8. c, then pass it throu-ih the front loop of the corres- ponding stitch on the row before the last, and make 5 d. c. through that loop, leaving the first loop on the needle untouched, which will only be drawn through with the last two loops of the 5th d. c. After every open shell stitch miss the next s. c. Qobolin Stitch. The Gobelin stitch is worked in rows back and forth. Make a chain. 1. Take up the chain loops, throwing every time the thread over the needle before taking up one chain loop. 2. Work back, throw- ing the thread over the needle and drawing it through two loops at a time (the worked loop and the overcast loop on the needle). 3. Like the first row, only pass the needle through the horizontal loop of every stitch of the last row. (See illu:- tration.) I w / ' OOBBLIM STrrCH. mm 12 HOME WOBK. Double Gobelin Stitch. This stitch is worked with wool of two shades. . Make a chain. 1. Take up the chain stitches, alternating three dark ones with one light. 2. Work all the loc^s from the needle, drawing the dark wool through the three dark loops, and the light wool through the light loop. 3. * Take up the three dark, then the one light, etc. The first dark loop is formed in passing the hook through the loop, just between the light stitch and the first dark stitch of the preceding row. The star in the illus- DOUBLB GOBELIK STITCH. tratiou shoWS where the hook passes to take up the second dark loop. The dot shows where the hook passes to form the third dark loop. 4. Work in the same manner as the second row. Repeat from *. Mussel Stitch. The mussel stitch is worked with one or two different colors. In the latter case the wool is fastened at the beginning of every row. Make a chain. 1. * Take up a chain loop from the back of the stitch ; make a second loop on the needle by throwing the wool over the needle ; make the third loop on the needle in working once more through the second chain stitch ; .miss one chain stitch ; repeat from *. CROCHET STITCHES. 13 MUSSEL STITCH. the illustratioD. Repeat first row, then second row. 2. Work back, *draw the wool through three loops at a time, one chain stitch ; repeat from *. While working every first row of the pattern, al- ways pass the needle through the back loop of every chain stitch of the second row, as shown in Braided Stitch. The braided stitch is worked in the first row by throwing the wool over the needle before taking up the loop of every chain stitch. ^ In the second row work back, drawing the wool through both the work- ed loop and the overcast loop on the needle. In working every first row of the pattern always take up the worked loop OQ the right of the overcast loop in the last row worked and the overcast loop together. See illustration. BRAIDED STITCH. 14 BOItE WOttK. il! i'f i! Striped Stitch. Begin with a chain. 1 * Take up one chain stitch, throw the wool once over the needle, take up the next chain stitch. Repeat from * to the end of the row. In taking up the loops always pass the needle through the middle back loops of the stitch. 2. Work back, ^ drawing the wool through three loops on . the needle, that is, through the two loops and the one overcast yV loop on the needle. Make one chain stitch. Repeat from * to the end of the row. 3. * Take up the first of the three feti'.ches drawn logftlier in th«» last rov«r, taking up the loop always frum the back of the stitches, 60 that the long loop back of the throe drawn together stitches may come in front (see letter a in illustration). Take up the next loops together from the back of the stitches (see letter b). STRiPKD STITCH. Pass the needle now through tiie next chain loop oi the row before the last worked (see letter c). Repeat from *, then repeat alternately second and third rows. Guipure or Spider Web Stitch. This stitch is shown in the illustration given of guipure lace. The stitch is made thus : Draw out loop on hook a1>out <>ne-third of an inch, thread over hook, draw through the loop, forming a long chain stitch, then put the hook through between the first loop and thread just drawn through, take up thread and draw up, making two stitches on hook, thread over and draw through both. This forms the knot through which other stitches are worked. Aiwa} a make a very tight slip stitch before beginning a guipure stitch, and after making a knot CROCHET STITCHES. 15 PagotIStit< a. Make a chain. 1. (Front.) Have one loop on the needle; take up two chain stitches, * throw the wool over the needle and draw it through those three loops ; make two chain stitches ; take up once more the loop last taken up; take up the next chain stitch ; repeat from *. 2. Turn the work. Take up a stitch in passing the needle from hack to front through the loop under- neath the second chain stitch ; then pass the needle from front to back through the two loops underneath the next second chain stitch (see illustration); throw the wool over the needle and draw it through the stitch. This new loop and the one already on the needle are drawn together. Repeat from *, being careful to FAGOT STITCH. pass the hook from back to front after having passed it from front to back. Repeat both first and second rows. Single crochet has to be worked in the upper loops of the last row. Crossed Treble Stitch. Make a chain of the required length, * throw thread over the book twice, and insert the hook in the third chain stitch, throw the thread over the hook and draw it through the chain stitch, throw the thread over again and draw it through two loops, three loops remain on the hook, leave them untouched.

Throw the thread over and draw it through two loops at a time until all the loops are worked off, two ohain, one double crochet on three middle loops of the five loops just worked off, two chain. Repeat from ^ Afg'han or Tricot Stitch. The crochet needle must be a rather long one, of bone, the same size from end to end. Make a chain as for any crochet. Suppose we say 17. At the end, turn and work back on the chain thus : Put your needle through the 15th loop, the one next but one to the last of the chain, and drawing the wool through, leave the stitch on the needle ; with this and the 17th stitch of the chain, you will have two stitches on the needle. Put the needle through the next stitch of the chain, and drawing the wool through, leave that loop also on the needle. Go to the end of the chaio, thus, and you will have 16 stitches on your needle. In making a chain for crochet tricot, you must always make one more stitch than the number which the work is to have, so as to have a neat turn at the end. At the end of the 1st row, having all the stitches on the needle, take up the wool with the hook, and draw it through the 1st stitch only, then catching the wool up again, draw it through the stitch just made, and the next stitch on needle ; then through the stitch just made and the next stitch, and so on to the end of the row, when only one stitch is left on the needle. Next row — Put the hook through the 1st perpendicular stitch of the preceding row, draw the wool through, leaving the stitch thus made on the needle. Go •to the end of the row thus; drawing the wool through each perpendicular stitch of the preceding row, and leaving all stitches thus made on the needle ; then work back as in the 2nd row. This stitch is also called Victoria, Tunif! and Tricot. c Muscovite Tricot Stitch. Make a chain of seven sts. ( or more if a wider stripe is desired) ; work up and off as in ordinary tricot ; work up all the loops, work off two loops, make three ch. with one & c. into 1st of three th., work off three loops, three ch., one & c. into 1st st. of ch., work off two loops.

Place two nails in a board about 36 inches apart. Over these nails pass the strands of wool evenly until you have it thick enough to make the pompoms the required size. (From 30 to 50 strands will be necessary.) Then take silk or wool and tie around these strands as tightly as possible, at distances from one to two inches apart, and the wool tied over these first tyings is to pass from ball to ball as they are cut. Cut the strands between each of the tyings, comb out and round off nicely with the scissors and steam by holding over boiling water. Any ends standing out must be cut off closely. Zephyr Plumes. Wind the wool over the 2 fore-fingers of the left hand 12 time;}, and catch the wool firmly with the ch. st, make 1 more ch. i)t. tight, then wind the wool 12 times more and catch as before. Proceed in this way until you have as many of these tufts as you require, then sew them upon the article they are in- tended for, arranging them like plumes. A Word of Advice. In crotcheting hold your needle and wool as lightly as pos* sibla Hold your needle in your right hand, but keep it free from everything else ; do not even allow the fingers of this hand to rest upon the work. Do not wear tight sleeves or finger rings ; have your arms free. Do not wind wool-^ase it from the skein ; but if you must wind it, do not make it into a ball, but wind it softly and light* ly from the thumb to the little finger of the left hand.

The work is hegun in the middle part of the yoke, the rosettes and uniting shapes being worked in two rows and the lower row ooped to the upper one. The half of each uniting shape worked together is crocheted onto the right and left side of each rosette. The way of making one rosette with half a uniting shape on each side will be sufficient explanation fur working the yoke, and is as follows : — 12 oh., join in a ring, '*' 2 s. c under ring, 5 ch., 1 F. e. in 4th st. from needle of 5 cb. just made (this is a picot), 2 s. c. under ring, 8 ch., turn the work and fasten the 8 ch. with a slip st. to 1st s. c. made in ring ; turn ; 1 s. c, 2 d. c, 7 tr. under the 8 ch., now make a ch. of 26 sts., turn the work and fasten this ch, with 1 slip at. to 1st s. c. of the CROCHET PATTERNS. 158 scallop directly under it, work back on this chaic, thus : 1 ch., miss Ist St., ^ ^ 1 8. c. in next st of ch., 1 ch., miss 1 st, 1 d. 0. in noxt, 1 ch., 1 tr. separated by 1 ch. in next 6 st., 1 ch., 1 d. c. in next, 1 ch., miss Ist of ch., 1 s. c. in next, miss 1 ch. and repeat from '*' * once more. This brings you to the end of 26 ch. Now finish the scallop you were making in 8 ch. with 1 d. c. and 1 s. c. 2. a Two 8. c. under ring, picot, 2 s. c, 8 ch., turn (fasten in B. c. as before), turn and make a 2nd scallop thus : 1 s. c. 2 d. c, 7 tr., 2 d. c, 1 e. c, repeat from a once more. 3. The next scallop is made same as 1st (be sure to make the 26 ch. before you finish the entire scallop.) | 4. Make 2 more scallops same as 2nd and 3rd ; you will now have a rosette of 6 scallops, one on each side surrounded by a half circle which is called a uniting shape (don't make more than 12 ch: for ring; the object is to have the scallops of rosettes overlapping each other). All the rosettes are made alike and fastened to one another by the half uniting shapes in the middle of each shape. The 2nd row is made like the 1st, and the uniting shapes on this row are united to one another and to the two upper scallops of the rosettes of lower row. A paper pattern of yoke is necessary in order to shape it correctly. On the bottom of yoke make thus : No. 130. 1. * One 8. c. in 1st scallop of rosettes, 7 ch., 1 & c. in middle of next scallop, 7 ch., 1 d. c. in middle of first half unit- ing shape, 7 ch., 1 d. c. in next half uniting shape, 7 ch., repeat from * around yoke.

Join with 1 d. c into each of the two picots which are sep- arated by 5 8. c. The rosettes for the corners have 2 picots left at the lop, •between the joining, and 6 at the bottom. See illustration , II tween the rosettes, a little ring of s. c. may be joined to two scallops — one on each side — and to the final chain which runs around the whole. For the ch., start say with the rosette on the right-hand bottom corner on the 1st of the two lower scallops of the rosette. Make a s. c. on this point, 6 or 8 Kih.

Of course, the open border surrounding the rosettes is made just long enough to lie flat when the tidy is laid down, without straining or pucker- ing, and the directions must be modified to do so, if necessary ; that is, I or 2 ch. more or less, must be made as required, and d. c. can be substituted for s. c, and tr. for d. c or the reverse, as may be needed.

A pretty counterpane is worked in squares with four-thread- ed cotton, and then crocheted together. The tufts form a diamond-shaped centre, and a triple row of tufts surround the squares, with rows of eyelets on each side. This pattern would be very suitable for a wool afghau by making the ground-work of square dark and the tuits a shade of lighter, or in contrasting colors. Join the squares together in stripep, and crochet the stripes together with a contrasting color. Use a very fine steel hook.

These compounds are gener- ally quite ii^expensive, and very much more is paid for the name b^ wLich they are known and the ornamental boxes than for the powders. Here are the formulae for making eight non-injurious powders for the face : Formula i. — Orris root, 1 part ; zinc oxide, 2 parts ; French chalk, 2 parte. Formula ii. — Precipitated chalk, 2 parts ; French chalk, 3 parts. Formula hi.— Zinc oxide, 1 part ; French chalk, 3 parts. The abcve are like the cheaper powders at the drug stores, such as swans down, etc., though they do not differ much from some of the better powders. Formulse iv., v. and vi., are like the better grades i-f face powders, Pozzoni's, Saunders', and others. Formula viii. is modelled on Pinaud's and Rimmel's. Formula .v. — Bismuth oxychloride, 1 part; precipitated chalk, 3 parts ; French chalk, 5 parts. Formula v. — i3israuth subcarbonate, 1 part; zinc oxide, 3 parts ; French chalk, 4 parts ; precipitated chalk, 4 parts ; corn starchy o parts. I'ORMULA VI. — Bismuth subnitrate, 1 part ; French chalk, 25 parts ; oorn starch, 35 parts ; terra sdba (powdered gyp- sum), 40 parts. Formula vii. — Bismuth subcarbonate, ) part ; zinc oxide, 3 parts ; magnesia carbonate, 3 parts ; talc. 5 paits. Formula yiil — Talc, 4 parts ; zinc oxide, 1 part ; starch, 1 pert.

Perfume may be added to any of the powders according to taste. Glycerine Preparations. — Common glycerine is usually impure, containing acids, and is very irritating when applied to the skin. Even pure glycerine when used undiluted wui with many cause irritation, smarting and aggravation, but in all such cases the impure article is worse. For external use and for toilet purposes, the brand of glycerine irnown as Her Majesty's Favorite Cosmetic Glycerine is the besf-. It is used by Her Majesty the Queen, the Princess of Wales, and the ladies of the nobility. It is a useful application for chapped lips and hands, rough skin, and the simple kinds of eruptions, pimples, etc. It is also valuable for the rough furfuraceous and inelastic skin, left after eczema, or other skin complaints. It res* ores suppleness to the tissues, and allays burning, ting- ling snd smarting. For a simple home-made perfumed glycerine for external use and toilet purposes, take : Pure glycerine, 8 fluid ounces ; violet water, 6 fluid ounces. Mix thoroughly by shaking. Instead of violet water, lavender water or other perfumed water may be used. Glycerine Cream.— Oil of sweet almonds, 8 fl. oz. ; sper- maceti, 3 oz. ; white wax, 1 oz. ; borax, ^ oz. ; glycerine, 3 fl. oz. ; orange-water, 1 fl. oz. ; oil of neroli, 5 drops; oil of rose, 3 drops. Melt the wax, spermaceti, and oil of sweet almonds together ; dissolve the f>orax in the orange flower water and glycerine previously mixed ; pour the solution, a little at a time, into the melted mixture, stirring the prepara- tion without ceasing, until all the solution has been fully incor- porated and a homogeneous product results ; tinally add the oils. Put i ito porcelain or glass jars. CAMrnoR Ice with Glycerine. — Spermaceti or parafine wax, 1 oz. ; white wax, 4 oz ; powdered camphor, 4 oz. ; powdered borax, 2 oz. ; pure stearine, 1 lb. ; ptue glycerine, 33 oz. ; oil of lavender, oil of lemon, oil of cloves, oil of e~ r I liii!

Melt the wax, spermaceti (or paraffine, if used), and stearine ; dissolve the camphor in the warm mixture ; mix the borax with the glycerine and stir this into the hot mixture with constant agitation ; add the oils and pour into suitable moulds. Cold Cream. — White wax, 1 oz. ; spermaceti, 1 oz. ; al- mond oil, 1 oz. ; olive oil, 1 oz. ; benzoated lard, 1 oz. ; cam- phor gum, \ oz. Melt together, first dissolving the camphor in the oil before adding the other ingredients. Thou beat them all together until perfectly cold and creamy. When desiring to use it, wash the face perfectly clean with hot water and soap, dry gently with soft towel, then put the cream on with the hands', rubbing for fifteen or twenty minutes, or until absorbed. Do this when ready to retire. RobE Cold Cream. — Almond oil, 6 oz. ; rosewater, 6 oz. j white wax. \ ox. ; spermaceti, \ oz. ; otto of roses, \ drachm. Melt the wax and spermaceti by placing the dish which con- tains them in hot water. When melted, add the oil, still keep- ing the dish in boiling water. When well mixed, remove from the water, slowly add the rose water, stirring constantly. Lastly, add the otto of roses ; pour into jars and cork. MiLTC OF Roses. — Pound 1 oz. of almonds in a mortar very finely ; then put ^n shaving of honey soap in small quantities. Add enough rosewater to work it into a fine cream. Add to the whole 1 oz. of spirits of wine. Strain through muslin. AppV ^o the face with a piece of lint. To Remove Tan and Freckles, — Dissolve 1 oz. borax in a pint of hot water.

Freckles, tan and pimples may be removed (and will stay removed as long as the remedy is used) by the corrosive subli- mate lotion. The formula is : Five grains of corrosive subli- mate, two ounces of alcohol, and four ounces water. For freckles, moisten a cloth with the lotion, wipe the face two or three times daily, and at night apply some kind of ointment, cold cream or camphor ice.

Pimples should be bathed several times a day. Horseradish grated in sour milk and applied twice a day is an old-fashioned and frequently successful remedy. Strawberry water, distilled from the whole wild plant and. berry, which has an exquisite smell, is also a fine wash for freckles and spots on the face. Saltpetre dissolved in water, as much as it will take up, is recommended. It should be applied once a day with a soft cloth, after washing the face with hot water. To Remove Blackheads. — Many women com plain of "those horrid blackheads ; " these specks are very unsightly when they exist in any number ; they are minute corks of coagulated lymph, which close the pores of the skia. These specks may be got rid of, by the application of a little cold cream, and then the friction of a towel, that has been moistened with warm water. The longer these little piles are allowed to remain in the skin, the more firmly they become fixed, and after a time ^^ they become converted into long, bony spikes ; for local treat- \ ment of which, take distilled rose water, one pint ; sulphate of zinc, 2 to 60 grains j mix together. Another good remedy is, oil of sweet almonds, one ounce ; tinct. potash, one drachm ; shake well together and when cold add rosewater, one ounce ; pure water, six ounces. First rub the pimples for some minutes with a towel, and then apply the remedy to the parts affected. Moth Patches. — To remove moth patches, wash them two or three times a day with a solution of bicarbonate of soda and water ; this will usually remove them in forty-eight hours. After the process, wash with warm water and some nice toilet soap ; the skin will be clear of these patches. An excellent remedy for tan and sun-burn, is a preparation composed of equal parts of olive oil and lime water. Lait Virginal. — The famous lait virginal was a name for several different toilet lotions, the most efficacious of which was an ounce of alum and the same of sulphur in fine powder shaken half an hour in a pint of rose-water, which became milky in the process. A cloth wet in this was laid all night on the face, which was afterwards washed in rose water. Most Ik«i.v 380 HOME WORK.

Marie Antoinette had a favorite wash distilled from half a dozen lemons cut small, a handful of white lily leaves and southernwood infused in two quarts of milk with an ounce and a half of white sugar and an ounce of rosk alum. The face at night was to be bathed with this water, which gave a beautiful purity and liveliness to the complexion. Another royal recipe was to infuse wheat bran three or four hours in vinegar with yolks of eggs and a grain or two of ambergris, distilling the whole and keeping it ten days in the sun to finish. For the Hair. In the spring and autumn it is q'lite usual for the hair of some persons to fall ; this is often caused by neglect in not having the ends cut frequently ; and if the hair is of a dry nature it needs to be nourished. To restore the growth, pur- chase 1 oz. of bitter apple (colocynth) and half a pint of Jamaica rum ; steep the bitter apple in the rum for three days, strain, bottle, and apply to the roots of the hair with a sponge- mop about three times per week. If the scurf in the head is very troublesome, purchase some creosote ointment, and rub well into the head when you go to bed at night. You must vrap your head up so as to prevent the ointment from getting on to the bed linen. Wash your hair and head in the morning with 3, little soft soap dissolved in warm water ; rinse in clean water, wipe dry. Here is the tonic recipe of the celebrated Erasmus Wilson : Apply the lotion every night with a piece of soft sponge, or if its daily Uoe causes irritation of the scalp use it only twice a week : Eau de Cologne, 8 oz. ; Tincture of cantharides, 1 oz ; Oil of Eogli >h lavender, ^ drachm ; Oil of rosemary, ^ drachm.

The compound may be preserved for years. To make the hands white, take equal parts of lemon and glycerine; mix, and bathe the hands just before retiring, and sleep in kid gloves or woollen mits. Another lotion especially good for whitening the hands is made as follows : Soak a cupful of wheat bran for 24 hours in white wine vinegar. Strain and add 1 oz. glycerine, the beaten yolks of 4 eggs and a tablespoonful of rose water. Let it stand well corked and unused for 20 days.

The following also is excellent for whitening the hands : Stir one tablespoonful of camphor (liquid) into half a cup of glycer ine ; put this in a pint bottle and fill up with rose-water. Rub on the hands while wet from bathing, and wipe off with a towel. An excellent pomade to whiten the hands is made of a quarter pound of white wax, a flask of salad oil, the juice of 2 lemons and half a pound of honey. Cut the wax very small, mix all the ingredients together in a jar, melt slowly. When all are melted, beat with a fork till cold. One can have the hands in soap suds with soft soap without injury to the skin if the hands are dipped in vinegar or lemon juice immediately after. The acid destroys the corrosive effects of the alkali, and makes the hands soft and white. Indian meal and vinegar or lemon juice used on the hands when rough- ened by cold or labor will heal and soften them. Eub the hands in this, then wash off thoroughly and rub in glycerine. Those who suffer with chapped hands in winter will find this comforting. Throw oatmeal in the warm or tepid water in which you wash your hands. It is well to keep a bowl of it standing where it can be used whenever needed. Perfames.
