Theoutwork should be separated by a horizontal weaver bar running from left toright and vice versa, fastened at each end to afford a little firmness. The samedesign worked with several vertical bars is less satisfactory on account of lessstability while working, besides its requiring more threads. Each pair is twisted three times between encounters or intersections.
