loop, work 5 double stitches, draw it close; then join to the next
loop of the next diamond, and for the large [OE]illet commence a loop,
work 2 double, then (1 pearl and 2 double 5 times), draw it nearly
close, and join to the next loop of the diamond. Work 3 large
[oe]illets more the same, joining after each; then repeat from + all
