How to darn correctly
Make the turning points of each row blunt
or the stitching will draw little holes at the
ends. Beginners may prefer the L or M
movement.
Take care not to get circles.
The quick mastering of this work depends
on regular guiding.
Therefore :
-- Hold the hoop correctly.
-- Always work from left to right
(as when writing).
-- Move work lengthways (not sideways)
for selvedge and weftway.
