Then make another row of single chain. Thenpass the same leader back to the left hand, and knot each thread twiceon to it, also the threads of the second chain ; pass the same leader tothe right hand, and knot each thread twice on to it with the left; repeatfrom* to ill- end of the desk. Take the two threads at each end oflit- pattern, and make six single chains on each. Make twoSolomons knots with the eight middle threads; make a Solomons knot No. *9 under these, taking two threads from each knot; make a Solomonsknot at each side, and then one in the centre, and so on, according tothe engraving.

Threads for this Pattern one and a half yards long,) Pin on the lines in the usual way, after which fasten on the threadsfor working; then loosen the second line, hold it in the right hand, andknot each thread twice on to it with the left. Take four threads, holdthe three first ones in the left hand, knot the fourth thread three timesover them with the right. Repeat to the end of desk.
