_5th round_. 1 l s, * 3 c s, miss 2, 1 l s into third stitch; repeat
from *.--

_6th round_. D c into every stitch of last round.--

_7th round_. 1 l s, 2 c s, miss 2, 1 l s into third; repeat from * all
round.--

_8th round_. D c into every stitch of last round. Work on the inside of
the first round of 29 c s a ring, thus: commence on centre, c s
_between_ the leaves, 16 c s, unite on foundation-stitch, d c
twenty-four times round this ring; repeat these rings between every two
leaves, making eight in all.

_The Leaves on the outside of the open Rounds_.--

Commence on stitch
opposite to the point of one of the large leaves. 18 c s, 1 l s into
sixth stitch, * 2 c s, miss 2, 1 l s into third; repeat three times more
from *. 1 s c into foundation-stitch, then 4 d c round first loop; 1 d
c, 2 l s, 1 d c round next three loops, 1 d c, 4 l s, 1 d c round top
loop; 1 d c, 2 l s, 1 d c round three loops on the other side of leaf; 4
d c round last loop. Make another leaf in the same manner, beginning at
the same foundation-stitch. Fasten off. Then two more leaves exactly the
same, opposite the points of all the large centre leaves. Then two more
leaves opposite each of the d c rings inside the open rounds (which will
be at an equal distance on each side from the others). There will now be
thirty-two small leaves, two and two, the upper point of each leaf to be
turned _outwards_, and to be tacked with needle and thread to the point
