Looking through some old NeedleCraft Magazines, I came across a few sweet knitted trims! The patterns come from
Needlecraft Vol.VII, No. 2, October 1915. I think I'm going to start a pattern journal of knitting trims! Pattern is shared in the original text. The pattern was designed to be knitted by children as a lesson for "Grandma or mamma or auntie" to help explain. Needle sizes and thread was not discussed, I suppose anything will do! Of course, the bigger the needle and thread, the larger the trim.
Cast on 7 stitches; knit across once plain.
1. Knit 2 over, narrow, knit 1, over twice, knit 2.
2. Knit 3, purl 1, knit 2, over, narrow, knit 1.
3. Knit 2, over, narrow, knit 5.
4. Knit 6, over, narrow, knit 1.
5. Knit 2, over, narrow, knit 1, over twice, narrow, over twice, knit 2.
6. Knit 3 (purl 1, knit 2) three times, over, narrow, knit 1.
7. Knit 2, over, narrow, knit 8.
8. Bind off 5, knit 3, over, narrow, knit 1.
Repeat from 1st row.
Have fun!
