Instead of making the top flange out-wards, draw it gradually inwards into a globe the clay carefully upwards and inwards untilthe opening at the top is almost closed. Several at-tempts will probably have to be made before this re-sult can be secured. Lesson VIIL Keep the hands wet. Spin up aglobe shape with a narrow base as in Lesson VI butcarry a good share of the clay to the top so that theupper edge of the globe is quite thick. Insert twofingers of the left hand and with the fingers of theright hand outside work the upper edge of the globe [82]. PLATE X, Throwing.—Lesson I\, i.
