For the benefit of lady workers, I this week take from the Queen a pattern of crochet that I think will be interesting alike to mammas wishing to work; for the delight of their children, and also for children anxious to amuse themselves. I know crochet-dressed dolls are a great success in shops, and meet apparently with a very steady sale, and there is no reason why this success should not extend to the home-made article.

Materials Required.-3oz. of dark-coloured single Berlin wool, 1oz. of lighter shade of ditto, 1oz. of white ditto. The drawers and petticoat are worked in white with the coloured wool edge.
