A Strong Purse.
Reading edition

First row—bring the wool forward, slip one; knit two, pass the slip-stitch over them.—Repeat to the end of the row.
Second row—plain knitting.
Third row—knit two, before the pattern is commenced, that the holes may come in a diagonal direction.
Fourth and Fifth rows—same as second and third.
Sixth row—same as first.
This purse will take five skeins of second-sized netting silk. It particularly requires stretching.
