2nd Row; (1 D, L, 1 D tie to the next L of the 2nd row twice;) 1 D, L, 1
D, tie to the same L; [1 D, L, 1 D tie to the next L of the 2nd Row
twice] 1 D, tie to the next L of 2nd Row, and repeat to the end of the

_To make a strong foundation for this edging. Take the plain shuttle,
and tie to the foundation cotton of the ovals, twice, between each oval;
or on either side of the ties in the 2nd Row._

EDGING No. 3.

[Illustration]

_Fill the shuttles with the same cottons as in the
1st Edging, and use the same pins. The coarser
sizes will make this edging an inch and a half
deep. Tie the cottons together._

Begin an oval with the plain shuttle; 3 D, L, 3 D draw tight. With the
plain shuttle thread work 4 D.

Begin a looped oval with the plain shuttle; 2 D (L, 2 D 5 times) draw
very tight.

_The Leaf._ Begin a figured shuttle oval; 2 R D (L, 2 R D 5 times) join
to the 3rd L of the last row of the Rosette; 2 R D (L, 2 R D 14 times)
draw tight. At a little distance begin a plain oval with the figured
shuttle; 3 D join to the thread of the Leaf under the join; 3 D draw
close. Begin a plain oval with the figured shuttle quite close to the
last; 3 D join to the thread under the 9th L of the 14 of the Leaf; 3 D
draw tight. Tie round the foundation thread of the two plain ovals, and
leaving a short space of cotton, tie between the 4th and 5th Ls of the
14 of the Leaf; tie again below the plain ovals and round the foundation
thread of the leaf.

[With the plain shuttle thread round the little finger, 4 D. Begin a
plain shuttle oval, 3 D; L, 3 D draw close. Work a similar figured
shuttle oval, and tie round its foundation thread. Repeat twice.] With
