When the last up-right spoke has been turned down there will be two lots of doublespokes inside and three lots of triple spokes outside. Take three twos out of the three threes, and pass them under thethree that were first turned down. This brings five lots of double spokes to the inside of the basket(see Fig. 151). Take first two lots and thread through as shownin Fig. 151. Then take the longer one of these, and, first threadingit just through the first single spoke, that it may lie flat beside that,. FIG. 153. SPLINT AND TWINED of Students, Teachers College, New York. follow the course of the first single spoke under the black spoke towhere it passes through to the outside of the basket, thus making itdouble like the others. There are four other double spokes>, and these must all be treatedin the same way as the first double spoke. In finishing this border the principle is to make all the single spokesused in starting double to agree with the rest of the border. To dothis the longer one of each of the double spokes inside the basketis used to follow out their course. Take the first double spokes from the inside and thread throughthe place shown in Fig. 151. Now take the longer of these andthread one up through the single spoke, so that it may lie flat besidethat; then follow its course under single spoke No. 3 and then to theoutside. The other four double spokes must be used in the same way tofinish the border (which is show
