The fourthrow is horizontally put in and must be woven as follows : over one up-per vertical, under lower vertical, at the :same time pulling the uppervertical to the right, and going over or under as the case may require,as shown in Fig. 48. Now begin the diagonal weaving from lower leftcorner to upper right corner. These go under and over the hori-zontal pairs and vertical pairs as shown in Fig. 49. In many chairsthere are little problems in the corners that the good sense of theweaver will easily solve if he is careful to have a due regard for pro-portion. When the diagonal weaving is completed, finish off with the bind-ing as before
