Knitting
To form a round
Stocking Stuffers are usually placed by the chimney and usually have
goodies inside of them. They are used during Christmas as decoration
purposes and are most loved by children. Children will usually leave
something in there for Santa or wait to have something in their from
Santa on Christmas day.
To form a round
Hold the needles together in the right hand, and knit as usual, inserting the left-hand needle in a loop of each at the same time, and treating the two as one.
TO FORM A ROUND:—This diagram represents the French manner of performing this process by casting the whole number of stitches on one needle, and then distributing them on three, or perhaps four. But the English mode is to divide the number of stitches, and cast so many on each needle, not withdrawing the last stitch of each needle from the point of the next needle. When all are cast on, the round is made by knitting the two first stitches on to the last needle. Four needles are employed for stockings, five for doyleys and other round articles.
