Popularity of Knitting Increases to Status of Women’s Favorite Hobby Yarn Manufacturers Offer Colorful Materials With Which Modish, Well-Fitting Garments Can Be Made. BY HELEN LINDSAY KNITTING has been estimated as one of the chief hobbies of Amencap women. ij] fact, knitting authorities say that one of every ten women in the United States is knitting, which is another proof that activities move in cycles. For many years ago our feminine ancestor* picked up their knitting needles and homespun yam between other busy minutes, and fashioned garments for their families. There were shawls and havy woolen hose knitted then, and jackets for older women, but those pioneer women didn't know the thrill of making costumes from bright colored yarns which had been designed by out-

standing couturiers. And that is what the women of today are able to do. Manufacturers of yarns, eager to bring back the enthusiasm of war-time knitting, questioned women as to what would induce them to knit again. And the answer showed that they wantec. to knit, but they wanted to have as the result of their labors smart garments which would be practical and beautiful. Women had had the experience of knitting clothing which would not fit properly when furnished. The designers solved that problem, first by creating knitted costumes which adhered to the fashion trends, and then having experts arrange tjie directions, so the garments would have individuality. Garments no longer are knit-

ted in units, but in sectons, with each piece suited to the measurements of the individual for whom it is intended. Lanvin, Lelong, Molyneux, Patou and other designers whose names mean much to clothes-conscious women, co-operated in the new idea. They have designed costumes which are being copied in many of the knitting departments of American department stores. These designers realized the importance of knitted garments. One of them, Elsa Schiaparelli, realized also the advantage o fwomen of becoming interested in such a pleasant pastime. She organized unemployed women in knitting groups. Queen Mary and the duchesses knitted. Mme. Galli-Curci, opera singer, knitted *in public, and the sight of Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt hurrying about her duties with a knitting bag on her arm is a familiar one. tt u nun Needle Work Reviewed By Depression THE depression had much to do with the revival of knitting. Some women took up the hobby to relieve nervousness. Others found it an aid in trying to break the habit of over-smoking, and others, who had cultivated a taste for epensive hand-knit garments which they no longer could afford to buy, found that it was possible to knit them at little cost. Among some of the new designs which the manufacturers of Fleischer yarns have had fashioned by the leading couturiers, illustrations, materials and instructions for which are available in the knitting department of the Wm. H. Block Company, is a striped two-piece dress, designed by Lelong. This is a crocheted dress, to be made on a steel crochet hook, size 2. It is made with a square vest and collar of white, a belted tunic blouse, and long sleeves, fitted at the wrists into crocheted white cuffs. The stripes are crocheted in the garment, widening from the bottom of the skirt. The dress is to make of petite bouclette, and color combinations suggested are brown with ivory; skipper blue with star blue; jade with ivory, and black with rose beige. tt * * tt a Simple Dress Designed By Aiix AL.IX has designed a one-piece dress of bouclette, with unusual double breasted front bodice, fastening with large wooden oblong buttons. Tffe dress is simple and straight, all of one color with the exception of a band around the neck and the belt, which are of lighter colored bouclette. The sleeves are long, and hared at the wrist. Color suggestions for this are rum brown with Bermuda coral; henna with rose beige, and mustard yellow with black. In addition to the suits and dresses which can be knitted by following this new system, there are coats and hats, glove> and scarfs. Mainbocher has designed a coat to be knitted of tweed bucilla wool, with a scarf collar of the same. It is belted, and has large patch pockets. tt tt u u tt tt Queen Wears Blue Gown at Wedding OUEEN MARY was an important figure at the wedding Thursday of her son, the Duke of Kent, to Princess Marina. She wore a pastel blue brocaded kown, on which there was a classic floral design of Australian gold. The dress was cut on princess lines, revealing an ur >£-„ dress of cloth of gold. With this, the QQueen wore a capclet of tt® same velvet, lined with pale gold and trimmed with Russian sables. Her hat was blue and gold velvet, trimmed with pastel blue South*™ African ostrich feathers. In her corsage she wore diamonds, and the blue ribbon of the Order of the Garter. Queen Mary is the Lady of the Garter. The only American woman to attend the royal wedding was Mrs. Robert W. Bingham, wife of the American ambassador. She wore a heavy red crepe gown with a brown and gold scarf, a sable cape ana a red velvet turban.

Contract Bridge

Today’s Contract Problem North has arrived at a six heart contract. East and West never entered the bidding. East’s opening lead is the ten of diamonds.

Solution to Previous Contract Problem BY W. E. M’KENNEY Secretary American Bridie League IWAS a guest of Frank Rendon's at the Royal Contract Club in New York recently. I believe there are as many bridge clubs in Greater New York as there are in the entire middle west and, to me, this club is one of the prettiest. It was here that I came across today’s hand, during a duplicate game. The bidding I give is what you might like to see on this hand, but at no table was it bid that way. Several South players opened with three spaces and can you imagine West’s predicament with the three spade bid put in by South? One West player, right over the three spade bid, went to six clubs and North without a minute's hesitation, bid six hearts.

At another table South passed and West made an original bid of two diamonds, only to find that, when the bidding got around to him again, it was up to four spades. North having bid four hearts and South four spades. a a a 'T'HE top score on this board was A made by the East-West pair that arrived at six diamonds. One player, foolishly, of course, let 150 aces go to his head and arrived at six no trump. Against six no trump, a small heart was opened by North, which knocked out declarer's ace and you can picture what his partner thought, because when North got in with the king of diamonds and laid down seven straight heart tricks, the war was on. Top score North and South went to the players who played the hand at four spades doubled. This is,the table where West opened with two diamonds and when the bidding came around to him again it was up to four spades. So he got mad and doubled. He opened a club, which was ruffed in dummy, a heart was led, West won with the ace and led another club. The declarer ruffed in dummy, played the queen of hearts and discarded the deuce of diamonds. West refused to trump. Now a diamond was played, ruffed by South and another club led and ruffed in dummy. Oh. yes, the contract could be defeated. but it wasn't, and that's what makes bridge an interesting game. (Copyright. 1934. NBA Service. Ine.)
