Evening Republican, Volume 19, Number 127, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 29 May 1915 — Strengthening Sock Heel. [ARTICLE]

Strengthening Sock Heel.

Strengthening the heel is invaluable in knitting socks and stockings, especially in the socks knitted now for army use. The method recommended as being the best by many authorities ft to knit in a thread of silk. This is durable, and not clumsy and liable to contract as is the double woo}. Silk is softer than cottqp, but a spool of black cotton. No. 20, unglssed, will answer the purpose.
