KNITTING SONG.
STITCH by stitch and row on row,
This is the way the stocking must grow.
Clickety, clickety, day by day
The slender, glittering needles say.
Hush-a-bye, Baby, Grandmother sings;
Hither and thither the cradle swings.
This is the way the stocking must grow.
Clickety, clickety, day by day
The slender, glittering needles say.
Hush-a-bye, Baby, Grandmother sings;
Hither and thither the cradle swings.
Pearl and plain and plain and pearl,
Be it for boy or be it for girl;
Two and two is a neat device;
Learn to shift the thread in a trice.
Hush-a-bye, Baby, Grandmother sings;
Hither and thither the cradle swings.
Be it for boy or be it for girl;
Two and two is a neat device;
Learn to shift the thread in a trice.
Hush-a-bye, Baby, Grandmother sings;
Hither and thither the cradle swings.
Inch by inch the long leg grows,
Straight and narrow for fitting close;
A very poor leg, is the saying well known,
That cannot shape a sock of its own.

Hither and thither the cradle swings.
Straight and narrow for fitting close;
A very poor leg, is the saying well known,
That cannot shape a sock of its own.
Hush-a-bye, Baby, Grandmother sings;
Hither and thither the cradle swings.
