COLORFUL PLACE MATS TO CROCHET THIS SUMMER
“Table tops are too precious these days to risk marring them with hot
dishes. A most attractive and colorful solution is a set of hand-|
crocheted place mats. They are easy pick-up work for warm weather,
and your friends will love a set as a gift. Fast color cotton in two
contrasting shades makes the mats. Be careful to choose colors that
blend with your china and linen. Direction sheet for “Crocheted Place;
Mats” may be obtained by sending a' stamped, self-addressed envelope
to the Needlework Department of this paper, specifying design No. 2716.
