On the right--knot 3 light green threads over the 1st thread coming from
the left and repeat the same group twice, on both sides.
The third bar forms, at the same time, the first scallop of a triple
crossed bar, which has also to be made on the right.
The two crossed bars finish with a triple group of bars; the last bar of
which, on the right, consists of only one double knot.
There remain to be made, on both sides, crossed bars with three whole
scallops inside, one outside, and one half one, top and bottom.
[Illustration: FIG. 584. WORKING DETAIL OF FIG. 583.]
Knot all the other threads over the 4 blue and the 4 light green ones =
in the middle, knot the right and the left threads, alternately, till
the black threads meet at the point.
Turn the group of bars, edged with blue and light green, inwards, and
finish it off by a crossed bar, with 3 scallops inside.
MACRAME FRINGE (figs. 583 and 584).--Entire length of the threads for
No. 15 of Cordonnet 6 fils D.M.C: 120 c/m.
1st row--knot the threads on with picots, fig. 519, 6 ecru and 6 brown.
2nd row--double and slanting bars made with 6 single threads, succeeded
by a double horizontal bar.
3rd row--begin with the light threads and make bars with double knots
between, as in fig. 577, and finish at the sides with 2 bars made with
the brown threads; for the dark brown bars, see also figs. 555, 561,
568, for the crossed bars, fig. 584.
This pattern should always end in such a manner that the light openwork
figure form the scallop and be framed with the brown knot.

This pattern is so easy that we refer our readers to figs. 544 and 561
for the working of it, merely remarking, that the bars are made
alternately from right to left, and from left to right, and that 3
threads are knotted over the cord that runs from the left and 4, over
the one from the right.
This fringe will always be found most effective in appearance if it be
made in four shades of one colour, knotted on in success
