2 plain, followed by the 3 stitches at the corner = in
the next scallop, you fasten by 1 single, the 1st picot of the 1st
scallop to the 3rd picot of the last scallop. When you have finished the
four sides of the figure above-described, fasten off your thread.

The edging of these squares should be begun on the narrower of the inner
sides and at the 3rd little scallop: * 1 plain on the middle picot of
the 3rd little scallop, 7 chain, 1 double treble on the 1st picot of the
4th scallop; 7 chain, 1 triple treble on the 2nd picot of the same
scallop, 6 chain, 1 double treble on the 3rd picot of the same scallop,
6 chain, 1 plain on the middle picot of the 5th scallop; 10 chain, 1
treble on the middle picot of the 6th scallop, 11 chain **, 1 quadruple
treble on the middle picot of the 7th and 1 quadruple treble on the
middle picot of the 1st scallop following and draw the last loops of the
2 trebles up together. Repeat once from * to **. Carry the trebles all
round the figure on the picots just referred to.

For the second half of the edging which becomes a little wider: *** 10
chain, 1 treble on the 6th scallop, 11 chain, 2 quadruple trebles, the
last loops of which you join to the middle picots of the 7th and 1st
scallop; 11 chain, 1 treble in the next scallop; 10 chain, 1 treble in
the 3rd scallop; 7 chain, 1 treble 21/2 long, 8 chain, 1 treble 31/2 long, 8
chain; 1 double treble, 8 chain, 1 plain, 12 chain, 1 treble, 14 chain,
**** 2 quadruple trebles, the last loops of which are joined together.
Repeat from **** to ***, that is the reverse way = finally add 1 more
whole row of plain and 3 plain stitches at the corners = on the wider
side you should have 99 stitches, not counting the increases at the
corner.

To make the same figure, forming a part of the large outside scallops,
repeat the same rows you have in the inner square up to the 7th row, the
first half of which you make exactly the same as before. In the second
half of the row of chain there should be 1 chain stitch less in each
intervening space than there were in the first half.

8th row--make the first half of this row like the 8th row of the inner
square = over the 2nd half, one quarter of which is 4 chain stitches
narrower, the little wheels are made like the others with 7 picots. The
number of chain stitches and the trebles of the setting are also the
same, but instead of 7 points you have to make 5 and over these, 5 small
scallops instead of 7.
