A Greek Cap in Crochet Silk
Commence at the top with a chain of fourteen stitches, unite the ends, and crochet one plain row. In the next row, make a raised or dividing line on every other stitch, as for the bottoms of bags. The increasing must be continued until the diameter of the circle is about six inches and a half. Work round this, in plain rows, until the cap be sufficiently deep; occasional increasing stitches may be made, if it be not large enough.
The cap should be finished with a double gold braid,—meeting the points of the increasing lines: a gold band round the bottom, and a handsome tassel at the top may be added; or in the place of these, silk trimmings may be substituted. It requires to be very neatly made up in the inside.
