Fill the bag full with tho powdor, bo that It will sift through easily when putted gently on tho face. Then make a pretty edge around tho circular piece by crocheting a few rowa of plain chnln stitch, each added row to be caught Into the mlddlo of tho preceding one. which elves a sort of ruffle effect.
