cut in three parts: the back part of spat, diagram II.; the front part, diagram I. ; and the winding part shown at the bottom. The two latter are joined together at the side line A, diagram I. The quantities marked indicate inches for a medium size, but as they are made adjustable at the hook, one pattern will do for all sizes. The width of the Puttee part is 5 inches at front, where it joins the spat, and 4½ inches For the rest of the length. The length of the puttee is 3 yards, and at the end of this 2 yards of 1 inch wide worsted tape is sewn on.
Diagram I. shows the width of these parts with the foot straps attached and the steel hook, very like a trouser hook, and the join to puttee at A. Diagram II. shows the outside with the buckle sewn on to correspond with the straps, and three steel eyes placed one behind the other so that the hook can be fastened to either, and in this way the size adjusted to wearer's taste. The algae are turned in and stitched and the seams are stitched on either side. Wherever a stay is necessary, leather is used, but otherwise there is no lining. The end of the puttees is finished with a corner, the ends being turned down and stitched and on to the end of this the braid is sewn.
