er with those of
point 11 = on the left with 2 pairs, on the right with 3 pairs to point
13 for the edge = put up 2 pins and continue the edge with linen
passings to point 14.
Return to point 15 and make a plait = put up a pin = divide the bobbins
and put one pair on the right, the other on the left = take the bobbins
at point 5 and 7 and make plaits to points 16 and 17 = make linen
passings with the two pairs to point 18 = put up a pin and make a plait
to point 21.
Make leaves in lozenge stitch from points 4 and 8 to points 19 and 20 =
one leaf from point 16 to point 19 = make another leaf to point 22 and
one to point 21 = make the same leaves on the left to points 20, 21 and
23 = cross the bobbins at point 21 = make leaves from point 21 to points
24, 26 and 26.
Make lozenge stitch with picots, with 3 pairs of bobbins from points 9
and 10 to point 22 = join the bobbins to leaf 22 = carry on the braid to
point 26 = join 2 pairs of bobbins to the leaf = leave the 2 pairs at
point 28 hanging down = carry on the braid to point 25.
Make a leaf at point 27 to point 14 = tie the threads together as at
point 10 = carry on the edge to point 29 = put up a pin = make a plait
with picots to point 30 = tie up the threads with those of leaf 28 =
make a leaf to point 31 = introduce the threads into the edge = put up a
pin = tie the threads together.
Make a plait on the left = leave 4 pairs of bobbins hanging down on the
right, 2 pairs for the plait and 2 for the leaf = carry on the edge to
point 32 = leave 2 pairs hanging for another leaf = continue the edge to
point 33. Make a plait from point 21 to point 34.
Begin again on the left at points 1 and 2 and work, as on the right, to
point 35 = cross the threads at point 25 = linen passing = distribute
the pairs to point 36 = 2 pairs at point 37 = 2 at point 38 = 3 pairs
at point 34 = plait to point 37 = join to point 38 = continue the plait
and join to points 36, 35, 39 = at points 35, 36, 37 lozenge stitch with
every 2 pairs of bobbins to point 40 = then join the next 6 pairs
together = and work on with lozenge stitch to point 41 = work exactly in
the same manner at points 31, 32, 34, 35, 39, 42 as at points 36, 37,
38, 40 to 41 = at point 41, all the threads are interwoven, and then
divided into 3 sets = continue the leaves to points 45, 46 and 47. Then
repeat in the reverse order from points 31, 38, 25, 32 and 39.
