Fig. 723. Fourth lace stitch.
Fourth lace stitch (fig. [723]).—Working from left to right, make two button-hole stitches rather near together, and leave twice as long a loop between them and the next two stitches as between the two first.
In the next row, which is worked from right to left, make one stitch in the loop between the two stitches that are close together and three or four in the long loop.
Fifth lace stitch (fig. [724]).—As in fig. [723], you begin this stitch from left to right, but making three stitches very close together with an intermediate loop as long as the three stitches in one.
In the second row, you make one button-hole stitch in each of the loops between the three stitches and six or eight in the long intermediate loop.
