chain, 1 chain, 1
treble on the 3rd chain, 1 chain, 1 half treble on the 3rd chain, 1
chain, 1 plain on the 3rd chain, 1 plain on each of the remaining
stitches; 4 rows of plain, to and fro, in each of the stitches of the
last row. The rows touch, and therefore encircle the leaf.

3rd leaf--16 chain, miss 1, 2 plain, 1 chain, 1 treble on the 3rd chain,
1 chain, 1 treble on the 3rd chain, 1 chain, 1 treble on the 3rd chain,
1 plain on each of the remaining stitches, 4 rows of plain, to and fro
round the leaf; 3 plain on the stitch at the top of the leaf and 3 on
the one at the bottom.

When these 3 leaves are finished, join them together on the wrong side
so that the end of the 2nd leaf is parallel with the last treble of the
1st leaf, and the end of the 3rd leaf parallel with the 1st of the last
plain stitches of the 2nd leaf. Having sewn these 3 leaves together,
carry on the plain stitches with the thread of the 3rd little leaf over
the two others. Fasten off the thread, join it on again at the 10th
plain stitch of the 3rd little leaf, counting the stitches downwards
from the top = 40 chain, 1 single on the 34th chain = on the ring: 10
plain, 1 plain each chain and 1 plain on each stitch of the leaves =
then, make 3 more rows of plain and 2 plain on every second stitch of
the 10 stitches in the ring.

Having reached the chain stitches, fasten on the thread, turn the work
and continue the other rows. When the rows of plain stitches are
finished, draw a thread through the chain stitches and pull them gently
together.

treble on the 2nd chain, 2 chain, 1 treble 11/2 treble long, 2 chain, miss
