For Babies Up To 4, Fleisher Fashions Volume 75
CHECK YOUR GAUGE FIRST:
Before starting your garment, knit or crochet a small sample. If you cannot procure the exact gauge given in the instructions, try a needle one or even two sizes smaller or larger until you obtain the exact gauge specified for the garment you intend to make. The needles and hooks recommended in the instructions are based on nearly as possible on the average knitters work. We suggest you test your own work first to verify the gauge.
If you find that you have to use a different size needle or hook than that called for in the instructions, the change will not in any way alter your garment, provided your gauge is in accordance with that called for in the instructions.
TO BLOCK OR STEAM YARN GARMENTS:
Turn garment wrong side out. Lay flat on a pressing board. Pin edges of garment if necessary to make it lie flat. Lay a wet cloth over garment. Pass a hot iron over the cloth allowing the steam to go through the garment. Do not allow the weigh of the iron to rest on the garment. Leave garment pinned until thoroughly dry.
TO WASH KNITTED GARMENTS:
Take complete measurements, then, using soap flakes, make think suds with hot water; then add enough cold water to make it lukewarm (comfortable wrist temperature). Avoid using hot water. Immerse garment and gently work suds through the fabric - do not rub or twist or allow the weight of the garment to pull it out of shape. Keep the garment supported in the hands when squeezing out water.
Rinse thoroughly in three lukewarm waters immediately after washing, squeezing garment gently between the hands to remove soap. Do not twist or wring. Roll garment between two turkish towels to knead out excess moisture - unroll at once and shape garment according to original measurements, leaving it on turkish towel. Let it dry slowly, not forgetting to stretch it frequently into its natural shape, according to measurements. While garment is still damp, block according to directions.
WEAVING STOCKINETTE STITCH:
Thread a tapestry needle and bring pieces to be joined close together. Draw up yarn in first st on upper piece, inserting needle from wrong side; insert needle from right side in first st on lower piece and bring up through next st from wrong side - draw up yarn; * insert needle from right side in same st as before on upper piece and bring up through next st from wrong side - draw up yarn; insert needle from right side in same st as before on lower piece and bring up through next st - draw up yarn; repeat from * until all sts are joined, and fasten yarn well before breaking off.
ABBREVIATIONS AND TERMS USED IN KNITTING AND CROCHETING:
ch = chain; sc = single crochet; hdc = half double crochet; dc = double crochet; tr = treble; inc. = increase; dec. = decrease; st = stitch; tog = together; yo = yarn over; in. = inch; ins. = inches; k = knit; p = purl; pat. = pattern
slip, k and pass = slip 1, k 1, pass the slipped st over the knitted st.

Original Copyright 1946
Baby talk about knitting! "Mommie says that whenever she wants to knit for me she finds just the right thing in Fleisher's Baby Book.
"She says the instructions are so easy to follow that even I'll be able to knit when I grow a little older. I heard her tell Sis that what she likes specially about Fleisher's books is that the instructions are so accurate...it's almost impossible to go wrong.
"She talks about checking with the gauge(whatever that is) so that whatever she makes is just the right size. I heard her say too that inches mean more than years. I guess by that she means that you can't tell a baby's size by her age - you just have to measure...that is why she is always measuring us and checking with her Fleisher book."
