But I will never laugh at another elderly chorus-singer again in my life, she is grand, she's heroic," and the pretty Kindergartner threaded gay worsteds into needles with a vigor which lent emphasis to her words.
In a large class of students one is pretty sure to find some who are more or less color-blind. The common defects are for red and green. Place worsteds on a white background in a good light. Select, as a test color, a skein of light green color, such as would be obtained by mixing a pure green with white.
When we were in the department store, do you remember that the girls were looking over some worsteds, or yarns, or whatever you call the stuff?" "Yes," Prescott nodded. "Well, I couldn't quite help hearing Laura Bentley say to Belle that the yarn she picked up was just what she wanted for you." "What on earth did that mean?" queried Dick, looking almost startled.
"No relief, day or night," added Miss Miskin. "Day or night! Surely you do not sell worsteds in the night-time?" said Sophia. "Not sell them, ma'am; only match them. The matching them is the trial, I assure you.
"Well, what then?" "If she will do something, and won't be happy without, then I can't help it, you see. But I can give her some worsteds for a Christmas present, and she can make little mats and things, and you can buy them. Now, mother, isn't that nice?" "Yes," said Mrs. Breynton, after a moment's thought. "It is a very good plan. I think Joy would like to join you.

When the girls came to make their purchases, they found that Gypsy's contribution of money would just about buy the crochet-needles and patterns. The worsteds cost about treble what she could give. So it was settled that they should be Joy's gift.
But, as all this time he had never left off singing about the bankruptcy of the beautiful maid in respect of truth, and now began not only to croak very feebly, but to kick with great violence as if respiration became a task of difficulty, Frank Cheeryble, without further hesitation, pulled at the shorts and worsteds with such heartiness as to bring him floundering into the room with greater precipitation than he had quite calculated upon.
His stockings no less proved her good housewifery, for they were entirely covered with darns of different colored worsteds, but had not a hole in them; and his shirt, though nearly as coarse as the sails of a ship, was as white as the drifted snow, and was neatly mended where time had either made a rent, or worn it thin. This furnishes a rule of judging, by which one shall seldom be deceived.
When she found that Sophia wanted to match some worsteds, she and her shop-woman exchanged sympathetic glances Mrs Howell sighing, with her head on the right side, and Miss Miskin groaning, with her head on the left side. "Are you ill, Mrs Howell?" asked Sophia. "It shook me a little, I confess, ma'am, hearing that you wanted worsteds. We have no relief, ma'am, from ladies wanting worsteds."
Odo was a brother of William the Conqueror and might easily have been interested in preserving so important a record of the Battle of Hastings. Dr. Rock states that the tradition that Queen Matilda executed the tapestry did not arise at all until 1730. The work is on linen, executed in worsteds.
