SMALL GIMPS IN CROCHET[Fig. 5.]
Materials.—Crochet cotton, No. 6; crochet hook, No. 18.
No.—1.—Make a chain the length required and then work back in dc. This is a very neat littletrimming for children’s dresses; and if required to be made of silk and purse twist be used, will be found to answer every purpose for which a narrow gimp may be required. It forms also an excellent substitute for the braid which is run on the skirt of a dress, as the wools of which it should then be made, can be procured of any shade whatever, which the braid itself cannot.
No. 2.—Make a chain of the length required, and on it work 1 dc., 1 ch, miss 1.
