ARABESQUE TOILET-COVER IN SQUARE CROCHET.

[Illustration: ARABESQUE TOILET-COVER IN SQUARE CROCHET.]

This pattern should be worked in Brooks' Great Exhibition Prize
Goat's-head Crochet Cotton, exactly to the size of the top of the
table, in rather thick cotton, to make it look massive, and to retain
its form; the edging must be worked in blue beads in crochet to the
pattern, and a number of beads given exactly to go round the table and
to hang down, and finished with a tassel at each corner.
