Knitted Mufflers
-
Knitted mufflers: Simple in the knitting, the two thicknesses of plain smooth
fabric give warmth in wear with softness to the touch.
Materials -
- 3 ozs. white and 3 ozs coloured, 4-ply Beehive Scotch Fingering.
- Two no.9 Celluloid Knitting Needles.
Using the white wool cast on 60 stitches. Work 6 rows in plain knitting.
7th row - k.3, purl to the last 3 stitches, knit these.
8th row - knit plain.
Repeat the last 2 rows until the work measures 50 inches.
Work 6 more rows in plain knitting. Cast off. Work a second piece like the
above, but using the coloured wool. Then carefully press each piece with a hot
iron. Place the two pieces together with the smooth sides facing and, with the
wool, neatly sew together the two long edges.
Turn the work inside out, then at each end join together the 2 pieces of fabric
by means of tassels, each made with 2 or 3 strands of the 2 shades.
