30, Fil a pointer D.M.C Nos. 10 to 30, or Fil a dentelle Nos. 25 to 50. COLOURS: Ecru and Brun-Havane 455, or Gris-Tilleul 391 and 331.] On the right--knot 3 light green threads over the 1st thread coming from the left and repeat the same group twice, on both sides. The third bar forms, at the same time, the first scallop of a triple crossed bar, which has also to be made on the right. The two crossed bars finish with a triple group of bars; the last bar of which, on the right, consists of only one double knot. There remain to be made, on both sides, crossed bars with three whole scallops inside, one outside, and one half one, top and bottom. [Illustration: FIG. 584. WORKING DETAIL OF FIG. 583.] Knot all the other threads over the 4 blue and the 4 light green ones = in the middle, knot the right and the left threads, alternately, till the black threads meet at the point. Turn the group of bars, edged with blue and light green, inwards, and finish it off by a crossed bar, with 3 scallops inside. MACRAME FRINGE (figs. 583 and 584).--Entire length of the threads for No. 15 of Cordonnet 6 fils D.M.C: 120 c/m. 1st row--knot the threads on with picots, fig. 519, 6 ecru and 6 brown. 2nd row--double and slanting bars made with 6 single threads, succeeded by a double horizontal bar. 3rd row--begin with the light threads and make bars with double knots between, as in fig. 577, and finish at the sides with 2 bars made with the brown threads; for the dark brown bars, see also figs. 555, 561, 568, for the crossed bars, fig. 584. This pattern should always end in such a manner that the light openwork figure form the scallop and be framed with the brown knot. [Illustration: FIG. 585. MACRAME FRINGE. MATERIALS: Coton a tricoter D.M.C Nos. 6 to 16, Cordonnet 6 fils D.M.C Nos. 8 to 20, or Fil a dentelle D.M.C Nos. 25 to 50.[A] COLOURS: Brun-Cuir 325 and Brun-Marron 403, 405, 407.[A]] MACRAME FRINGE (fig. 585).--Entire length of the threads for No. 12 of Coton a tricoter D.M.C: 96 c/m. This pattern is so easy that we refer our readers to figs. 544 and 561 for the working of it, merely remarking, that the bars are made alternately from right to left, and from left to right, and that 3 threads are knotted over the cord that runs from the left and 4, over the one from the right. This fringe will always be found most effective in appearance if it be made in four shades of one colour, knotted on in success
