1815.
Long
Stitch,
or
L.
With
the
loop
of
last
stitch
on
the
hook,
twist
the
cotton
over
the
hook,
place
the
latter
through
a
stitch,
draw
the
cotton
through,
then
put
the
cotton
over
the
hook,
draw
the
cotton
through
two
loops,
and
again
through
two
loops.
1816.
Double
and
Treble
Long.
With
the
hook
in
a
loop,
twist
the
cotton
twice
or
three
times
over
the
hook,
and
draw
the
hook
successively
through
either
two
or
three
loops.
1817.
Square
Crochet.
Square
crochet
is
also
sometimes
used.
The
squares
are
either
open
or
close.
An
open
square
consists
of
one
L,
two
Ch,
missing
two
on
the
line
beneath,
before
making
the
next
stitch.
A
close
square
has
three
successive
L's.
Thus,
any
given
number
of
close
squares,
followed
by
an
open,
will
have
so
many
times
three
L's;
consequently
any
foundation
for
square
crochet
must
have
a
number
that
can
be
divided
by
three.
1818.
To
Contract
an
Edge.
This
may
be
done
in
Dc,
or
long
stitch.
Twist
the
thread
round
the
hook
as
often
as
required,
insert
it
in
the
work,
and
half
do
a
stitch.
Instead
of
finishing
it,
twist
the
thread
round
again,
until
the
same
number
of
loops
are
on,
and
work
a
stitch
entirely;
so
that,
for
two
stitches,
there
is
only
one
head.
1819.
To
Join
on
a
Thread.
Joins
should
be
avoided
as
much
as
possible
in
open
work.
In
joining,
finish
the
stitch
by
drawing
the
new
thread
through,
leaving
two
inches
for
both
ends,
which
must
be
held
in.
