UNREAD CONDITION. Make It Yourself: The Complete Step-By-Step Library of Needlework and Crafts #17.


More advanced knitters will have plenty to get their needles into in Volume 17 of Make It Yourself. You can create beautifully-patterned pullovers and cardigans by using yarn in several colors and following the designs on a chart. As well as the wide selection of patterns for you and the children, there are knitted pillow covers which you will be proud to display in your home.

Crochet goes lacy with a bikini set for the beach, a delicate yoke for a blouse, a pair of feminine gloves, and lots more. Again, there is plenty which those who are experienced with a crochet hook will find an absorbing challenge.

If you feel like a sporty summer, deck yourself out from our dressmaking section. Jackets, pants, over-alls, cotton dresses--you'll find something to suit you. You can also learn how to set in a sleeve gusset and make a pleated skirt on a yoke.

For embroidery addicts, we give a choice of cool embroidered blouses as well as ideas for satin stitch in needlepoint. Learn also how decorative and useful quilting is in the home.

Children love to be outdoors in the summer, so why not make them a play tent or a special hammock. Even baby is not forgotten--he has his own special basket for summer walks.
