    Exclamation Needle Arts Club Contest Day 6

    You will have to unscramble the word and give a short description of what that word means or does and where and when you would use it in a particular needle art. If you can find a picture online and post it, that would be great too.

    Today's word is worth 2 points.

    Welting - a strip of material, often folded over a cord, and placed at the edge of a seam, cushion, etc. to reinforce or trim it. It can also be called piping.

    Here is a picture of it - http://www.jkmribbon.com/conso/piping.html

    CJ is right but this is about needlework not sewing.

    Here you go - http://www.dabbler.com/ndlwrk/stocking.html

    WELTING: A sturdy section at the top of the stocking. In the earliest stockings, this was a band of woven fabric to which the knitted stocking was attached. The simplest welting is 12 to 16 rows of garter stitch, and is more common in the earlier stockings. By 1838, a knit 3-purl 3 rib was common, as was any variation of that (knit 4-purl 4; knit 5-purl 3). Basketweave (k 3, p3 for 3 rows; then p 3, k 3 for 3 rows) was also used.

    Congratulations CJ!!! You will receive 2 points for today's correct answer!

    I'm sorry about the mix up, I knew piping was also called welting, but had my brain on knitting! Next time I'll try not to use words that can go in either category.

    Standings:

    Arlene = 1 point
    Karen = 2 points
    Denise = 1 point
    CJ = 4 points
    Melissa = 1 point
