16. Forty-four crosses.

Around the neck make spaces for the ribbon by fastening in at end of

1 treble, and repeat. Now make a row of crosses entirely around the
jacket, putting extra crosses at corners to keep the work flat, follow
this with a row of trebles, widening by making extra trebles at corners
to turn them nicely, finish with a row of shells of 8 trebles in a
stitch, miss 3, fasten, miss 3; repeat, and edge with the crochet-silk,
making a double between 1st 2 trebles of shell, (chain 2, a double
between next 2) 6 times, chain 2, double in double between shells, chain
2, and repeat.

For the sleeves:

1. Make 6 trebles on trebles under the arm, and 36 over the 12 crosses.

remainder, running it in the 7th row of sleeve and making a pretty bow
on top.
