Keep it for your scrap book, and be sure to order the leaflet to add to your collection of rug ideas. Cut or tear the rags inch wide and use knitting needles inch in diameter. Knit the oval center first. Cast on four stitches and increase one at the end of each row until the depth of the work is 4-inches, then knit evenly for 10-inches. Bind off one stitch at the end of each row until you have four stitches left. Bind these off. The diagram gives the dimensions dimen-sions and colors for the bands that are sewn to this center oval. Cast on seven stitches to start each band. For the outside band, start with color 3. Knit 7-inches, then cut the fabric strip and sew color 4 to it. Continue. Use a large crochet hook and fabric strips to crochet around the oval and the outside edges of the bands. Sew together with double carpet thread. -Note: Mrs. Spears' Sewing Book 2, Gifts, Novelties and Embroideries, Embroider-ies, contains 48 pages of step-by-step directions which have helped thousands of women.
