CROCHET TIDY OR BERCEAUNETTECOVER. Cotton No. 12 or No. 14 should be used fora tidy, and No. 18 for a bercheaunette cover. This pattern is composed of rosettes, whichare worked separately, and joined to one an-other in crocheting the last round. The design. is light and effective, and there is very littlework in it, so that either a tidy or berceaunettecover would be very quickly made. Shouldthe space be considered too large between therosettes, a diamond-shaped piece of crochetmay be inserted, or a few rows of chain loopedacross would answer the purpose. We mayhere mention that in crocheting the rosetteevery row must be complete in itself, to make thepattern, when finished, perfectly round. It iscommenced in the following manner: make achain of nine stitches, and join round. 1st row.—Work into the ring 9 loops of 5chains each. 2d.—3 single stitches to bring the cotton to thetop of the loop of the preceding row.* 7 chain, 1single into the centre chain of loop, repeat 7times from*. 3c?.—The same as second, but working ninechain instead of seven to form a larger loop. 4th.—Single stitches to the top of the loop,1 treble ; 11 chain, 1 treble into the centre ofloop ; repeat to the end of the row. 5th.—1 chai
