[edit] Original Pattern
Pins No. 11; 25 stitches to a pattern. Six shades each of scarlet, drab, and blue. Cast on 108 stitches. Commence with the darkest blue and knit 4 plain rows.
First row:—Knit 2 together four times, bring the wool forward and knit 1 eight times, knit 2 together four times, knit 1, and repeat.
Second row:—Seamed.
Third row:—Knit.
Fourth row:—Seamed.
The shade is changed after the completion of these 4 rows. The 6 shades of blue are knit from dark to light; then the 6 shades of scarlet; and then the shades of drab: each set of shades is knit twice, and you will finish with the lightest drab. Knit 4 plain rows of that colour besides the 4 pattern rows.
