KNIT ARTICLES. 639 (In making new stitches they must always be cast on the outer edge, so as to bethe first ones knit, when returning back and forth.) Knit back and forth, mak-ing a new stitch at each end, until two have been cast on, at the point of thethumb, always making a new stitch when reaching the lower part of the thumbpiece, until the thumb piece is half done. Knit back and forth once, without making a stitch at the upper point, thenback and forth again, until the two have been bound off, one at each time, reach-ing the upper point. The thumb piece will then be half done. Bind off one stitch at a time, as the knitting proceeds at the lower point,instead of making new ones, as was done in directions for first half ; proceedwith upper point of thumb the same as in given directions ; at the last bind offfive stitches, leaving three for gusset; knit, bind off one on either side, leavingone for the last; draw the last stitch, and the thumb is SHAPE OF THE KNIT MITTEN WHEN COMPLETED. For the hand part (fig. i) cast on twenty-four stitches, knit back and forth,making a new stitch every time the upper part of the hand is reached, until fourstitches have been added, then knit across four times without widening. Con-tinue the knitting until the four stitches have been bound off, when half the handpart will be done. Knit the other half; bind off; sew the hand part by doubling the halves to-gether. After the thumb pieces have been sewed together, insert the gussetsabout half way in the open space of the hand part, letting the lower part of thethumb point extend down to the wrist. For the wrist (fig. 2) cast on eight stitches; knit a plain strip long enoughto reach around the lower part of the mitten. Or a wrist can be crocheted on. A Knitted Cape.—Use three-ply fleecy wool,
