_Thirteenth and Fourteenth rows_—two shades of scarlet.

Then, work one plain row of black, and one plain row of gold colour.

To form a point, if it be intended for the border of a half square shawl, omit a stitch in the centre of each row;—this, if the size of the shawl has been determined upon, previously to commencing the work, may easily be done without interfering with the pattern, as by calculating the number of stitches required, a greater space of the ground where the stitches are to be omitted between the two centre pines may be allowed. For a square shawl, the border, if preferred, may be worked separately, and afterwards sewn on.
