Crochet Head n' Hand Set
By JUDY LOVE
Clap hands — it’s crochet
away time. Here’s a beauti
ful way to beckon cool
weather, and an easy way to
crochet a head start on spe
cial gifts. It’s hard to believe
that nippy days are right
around the corner and that
before long your gift list will
require checking off names.
So get an early bird needle
worker start and work your
way with beguiling crochet.
Here’s your hand and head
start: bright warm and good
looking, two-color, striped
mittens and a matching
striped pompon beret. You
work the pattern in an easy
joint, single crochet stitch,
working two strands of yarn
throughout. This easy, fast
technique gives a bulky but
soft and pretty effect. Both
mitten thumbs and the beret
border are simple, single
crochet. You’ll use a size K
crochet hook, working with
Coats and Clark 4-ply, Red
Heart knitting worsted. This
yarn is available in all vari
ety and chain stores, as well
as in many needlework de
partments.
The bright little beret
that’s so fashion-right today
is finished with a snappy
pompon that you can make
in minutes.
So salute the season and
f'et to work on this charm
ng pair of winter-warmers.

Dear Judy—l’m relatively
new to the art of needle
work and would like a little
advice on how to measure
my work while it’s still in
progress. The hit-and-miss
method has worked so far,
but my ventures are getting
more complicated and I want
to be sure that they’ll fit.
Can you help? Thanks very
much.—S. A. Chicago, 111.
Dear S. A.—l wouldn't ad
vise you to continue with the
hit-and-miss method. Things
aren’t always as they seem,
to paraphrase the old cliche.
Measuring is important if
you want to be sure of a
perfect fit.
To measure your work
while it’s in progress, lay it
down on a flat surface
with the needle at your left.
Using a nonshrink, non
stretch tape measure, place
the end of the tape just under
the point indicated in the in
structions. Don’t stretch your
knitting. Simply smooth your
work out as it naturally
would lie. Now don’t cheat
yourself by trying to make
your work measure more
than it really does. You’ll
only have to rip it out and
start all over. Never hold
work up to measure it. An
article such as a coat or
skirt may stretch from the
weight of the material, so
discontinue working at about
two to three inches of re
quired length.
Let your work hang for a
few days to allow the knit
ting' to stretch in length
naturally. Now, again, meas
ure your work on a flat
surface to be sure you’ve got
the correct measurement. It

may take a little longer, but
when you’re finished, all
your efforts won’t be wasted
in the closet. Happy knitting

POLLY’S POINTERS
Keep Photos, Negatives
Safe in Filing System
DEAR POLLY—I would like to tell Mary K. how we
store photograph negatives. All our albums have the
pages numbered and the albums were purposely bought
in different colors. I keep a file system for the negatives,
using envelopes that fit in recipe file boxes. The nega
tive strips are enclosed in the envelope with the page
number and color of the album on top of the envelope. I
use double-stick tape to apply photos to album paper
—BERNICE
DEAR POLLY—Mary K. wanted to know where to
keep photo negatives. We store all of ours in a metal
safety deposit box. They are kept in their original en
velopes and we write on the dates and/or events. We also
write the dates on the backs of the prints and file the
negatives in order of dates. If we want to know about
when a picture was taken, it can be found on the match
ing negative. We also store our movie film and slides in
these metal containers and all our precious memories
recorded on film are safe from possible fire or other
damage. Once lost, there is no way to replace them —

Polly's Problem
DEAR POLLY—I have an antique white French
Provincial baby crib which is no longer used. I
wonder if any of the readers can suggest away to
convert this to a useful piece of furniture for a
girl’s room. It should require a minimum of car
pentry.—OLGA
DEAR POLLY—My Pet Peeve is with those mothers
who send sick children to school when they should be
home in bed. The same goes for mothers who take their
children to church or other such places where other
people are exposed to them.—TRUDY
