58th to 78th row inclusive: 2 close squares at each end, and the intermediate all open squares. Finish with two rows double crochet.

Two of these pieces are required.

FOR THE POINTED PIECE.--As the narrow edging with which this is trimmed is added at the sides, the piece itself is not so wide as that already given. Make a chain of 268 st.i.tches, and work on one row in d.c.

The second is also worked in d.c., but diminished two squares at each end, thus: begin on the second d.c. st.i.tch, slip 2, s.c. 2, d.c. till you come to within five of the end, then s.c. 2, slip 2.

Decrease the next and all succeeding rows one square at each end, by working on the first four d.c. st.i.tches of the row 1 slip, 2 s.c., 1 d.c., after which three more d.c., the other end being made to correspond.
