1. TO PASS A THIMBLE THROUGH THE RIGHT KNEE AND BACK AGAIN, THEN THROUGH BOTH KNEES
With a thimble held secretly in the thumb grip in the left hand, stand facing the front and place the hands on each side of the right knee, the backs to the front, the forefingers extended, the other fingers closed on the palms and the right forefinger capped with a thimble. Tap the right forefinger against the side of the knee, then move it back to its original position. This is a feint. Repeat the action, but this time thumb palm the thimble and strike the bare tip of the finger against the side of the knee. A moment later bring the left forefinger against the knee on the other side, rapidly transferring its thimble from the thumb grip to its tip.
Smoothly done, the illusion of the thimble having passed through the knee is perfect. By reversing the action you then make the thimble apparently return to its original position. Continue by joining both knees and make the thimble pass through them from right to left and back again.
In similar fashion you can apparently place a thimble in the mouth and bring it out of the ear; pass it into one ear, through the head, and out of the other ear; and so on according to your own fancy.
