TERMS USED IN KNITTING.

Cast on—Make a loop on 1 pin, and with the other pin knit a plain stitch without taking it off, pass it on to the left pin and repeat.

Cast on—Create a loop on one needle, then with the other needle knit a plain stitch without letting it go, transfer it to the left needle and repeat.

Cast off—Knit 2 stitches, pass the 1st stitch knitted over the 2nd, knit 1, turn the 2nd stitch over the last, and repeat to the end; then cut off the cotton and draw it through to fasten it.

Cast off—Knit 2 stitches, pull the 1st stitch over the 2nd, knit 1, turn the 2nd stitch over the last, and keep repeating until the end; then cut the yarn and pull it through to secure it.

The 1st stitch of every row should be slipped.

The 1st stitch of each row should be slipped.

To make round after casting on 3 pins with the 4th pin, knit the 1st stitch cast on.

To start knitting in the round after casting on 3 stitches with the 4th stitch, knit the 1st stitch you cast on.

In purling a row, the wool should be in front of the pin. When there are purl and plain stitches in a row, bring the cotton forward to purl, and pass it back before knitting the plain stitch.

When purling a row, the yarn should be in front of the needle. When there are purl and knit stitches in a row, bring the yarn forward to purl, and then move it back before knitting the knit stitch.

To knit 3 together—Slip a stitch, knit 2 together, turn the slipped stitch over them, leaving but 1 stitch.

To knit 3 together—Slip one stitch, knit 2 together, and then pull the slipped stitch over them, leaving just 1 stitch.

A slipped stitch should always be taken off the purl way.

A slipped stitch should always be removed from the purl side.

To purl, is to put the pin the contrary way to knitting plain; in knitting, the pin is put up the stitch, in purling it is put down.

To purl means to insert the needle in the opposite direction from knitting plain; in knitting, the needle goes up through the stitch, while in purling, it goes down.

When this mark (*) occurs in a row, the stitches before it are not to be repeated in the row, being merely the edge stitches to prevent the work from decreasing; thus, when knit 3 together is in a row, the row generally begins with knit 2 together, and ends the same.

When this mark (*) appears in a row, the stitches before it are not meant to be repeated in that row; they are simply the edge stitches to stop the work from decreasing. So, when "knit 3 together" is in a row, it usually starts with "knit 2 together" and ends the same way.

The stitch over in many of the patterns, is always knitted as the 1st stitch, as many patterns end with make 1, it could not be done without this stitch.

The stitch over in many of the patterns is always knit as the 1st stitch, since many patterns end with make 1, and this stitch is essential for that.

Many ladies in working a pattern, copy on cards each row separately; this prevents confusing one row with another.

Many women working on a pattern write down each row separately on cards; this helps avoid mixing up one row with another.

The stitches between the mark, thus (knit 2 together 3 times) are worked, knit 2 together, knit 2 together, knit 2 together; this prevents useless repetition.

The stitches between the mark, then (knit 2 together 3 times) are worked, knit 2 together, knit 2 together, knit 2 together; this prevents unnecessary repetition.

The pins and meshes are all gauged by the standard or wire-drawer’s gauge.

The pins and meshes are all measured by the standard or wire-drawer’s gauge.

To raise stitches—Put the pin in the selvedge or side of the knitting, put the wool round the pin as in knitting, and bring it through, so as to form a stitch.

To raise stitches—Insert the pin into the edge or side of the knitting, wrap the yarn around the pin like you would while knitting, and pull it through to create a stitch.

To make a stitch—Bring the wool forward between the needles.

To make a stitch—Bring the yarn forward between the needles.
