(b) Correcting several rows of dropped stitches
1. Insert the tappet into the side of the garment away
from you,
and catch a loop or stitch a few rows
below the dropped stitch. Undo the stitches down to
the tappet.
Note:
With free hand pull down on the garment directly
under
the dropped
stitch.
This
separates the
cross threads and makes picking up easier.
2. Push the tappet toward you so that the stitch comes
behind the latch of the tappet and catches the cross
thread just above into the hook.

Draw back the tappet, and cross thread is trapped
in the closed latch.
The stitch behind the latch slides down
over the
closed latch to form a stitch.
Repeat this procedure
to the top.
. Pull the last stitch rather tight.
Carefully remove
the stitch from the tappet and place it on the needle
with your tappet from the front.
