Other years the girt of his dreams began to sigh for the mountains or the seashore at this tlmo of jear. June, 1918, finds her sitting on the front porch knitting. All she asks is a little wicker basket stand or a Susie or some thing like that to keep the cat from get ting the yarn. Of course, one might stretch n point and accept a fascinating wicker sewing stand lined with cretonne that has loses growing all over II Anyway, 1918's summer girl Is satisfied to stay at home during a great many of the summer months and go faithfully on with her war work But there are recompenses on tho front porch. Walk through tho summer furniture section of the department stores and jou will find them. You will be Inter ested If you are going to stay at homt or If you arc going to do jour knitting to the tuno of sea breezes. Designers have put beads together nnd turned out tho daintiest, prettiest knitting furniture that Well, thero really never was any knitting furniture befoie, was there? There Is Susie, for Instance. Have jou ever heard of her? Susie Is really noth ing more or less than the prettiest llttli stand In tho world to hold jxirn. One particular Susie was painted gray and hand decorated with little pink blossoms. Slrlctlj- speaking, it should grace tho drawing room, for Susie could match the finest piece of furniture theid, but the summer gitl cannot find It In her heart to leave It there all the time Then a little removed from Sus.e In price nnd surely reasonable enough o win Its vvaj- onto the most unassuming of front porches is the basket knitting stand This Is sort of a best seller a sturdy and vcrj- roomy -nrn basket at tached to a wicker stand . A piece that will greatly appeal to the woman who loves a toomv and at the same time unusual sewing bnsket Is the wicker one, which somehow reminds S-ou of the delightful wicker standing flower boxes that are seen In the shops this season. The basket is lined with cretonne, sweet and heavy with roses It could easily be used for knitting or for sewing. It blands on substantial, j el dalntj-, legs. Besides these distinctly new pieces In the shops, there Is the alwaj's popular little collapsible mahogany and cretonne knitting stand The cretonne, really a well-made bag, Is bung on a little mahoganj- frame that collapses. Then there Is a erj- attractive newcomer that has "two stories" j'atn goes In the top and anything In the bottom This comes In mnhogan To tell the stoij- of the nlneteen-oigh-tecn knitting furniture without saying a word about knitting bags, would be like leaving Hamlet out of his own play. The seashore knitting bag comes In ratlla, decorated with bright-colored fruit. It Is a delightful little affair that slips over the arm llko a llttlo old fashioned bonnet. The clasp knitting bag, we are told by those who know. Is In for a strong season of popularity, too. Xcw materials are dally working themselves around the clasps and now ono finds summer silk, ruffly cretonne and even the lighter summer material there. The old reliable roomj- cretonne bag Is stilt In favor. New patterns are Introduced Into the fabric that go to make It up this season, but the same room Is there. One can still put Into It everything but the kitchen stove! Standing on the brink of real summer davs, whether the next three months are to be spent at home or away, one looks long nnd longingly at these knitting ac cessories. They are all practical enough to hfl well worth the money Invested. And Irresistible enough to win the heart of any woman.
