Doctor Haeberlin says: As seen in the drawings, the triangles of D fit into those of band E. Due to thecurvature of the basket the spaces between the bases of the triangles (markedA) can not be so regular as those of band E. The number of stitches at the Asin band D are as follows (beginning at the break): .3, 5, 5, 4, 8 (corner), 5, 5, 8(corner), 4, 3, 3, 5, 6 (corner), 3, 3, 4 (break, at corner)..
