Eyelets for threading: dimple eyelet and ridged ribbonEntry/Object ID
2020.1.309Description
From the book: "These two eyelet patterns are not only quite pretty when used unadorned, but also useful where ribbon or some other decorative strand is to be threaded through the fabric. Both patterns make long horizontal rows of holes, and look very nice when a narrow velvet or satin ribbon, or a strand of heavier yarn in a contrasting color, is woven through them. Dimple Eyelet is particularly useful for a gathering ribbon, as around the neckline of a blouse or the hem of a sleeve. Ridged Ribbon Eyelet, having purled ridges above and below the line of openings, makes a frame into which the threaded ribbon is seated. The number of stockinette rows in between eyelet rows is optional."Collection
