For the border, for which the green cotton is to be used:

Make a chain of 16, turn, miss 2, 2 sc., 3 dc., 4 tc., 3 dc., 2 sc., 1 ch., turn; work the same on the other side of the chain of 16, and fasten off.

This completes one leaf; let as many be done as may be required to go all round the D’oyley, rather more than twice. Then, with fine green cotton, sew the points of some, at regular intervals, round the Fish Cloth. Make a chain all round, connecting the base of the leaves at regular intervals. On the chain, work a row of sc., connecting the ends of the remaining leaves for the outer row.

Or the leaves might be made with a chain of 5 between each; the second row of leaves being worked on the other side.
