The two circular ends should be worked first. Commence with a chain of six stitches, in black four-thread fleecy: unite both ends, and crochet all round, increasing on every stitch for the first row.
The pattern is then to be worked in three shades of scarlet, on a ground composed of three shades of green; the darkest shade of the scarlet being on the lightest shade of the green.
Second row—one stitch dark scarlet; two light green.—Repeat.—This forms the commencement of a star of six points.
Third row—three stitches dark scarlet; two light green.—Repeat.
