A Prolong Mat of sixteen bights.

A friend of mine recently announced that he had a small adjustment when following the instructions
made a mat according to the instructions in a book. for an Ocean Plait Mat and ended up ‘inventing’
He very proudly showed me the result of his labours, a new mat! It is a most unusual and eye-catching
shown in the photograph. I pointed out that this was piece and I asked that he not change it – it makes
the first and only example of a nine-bight flat mat I a wonderful addition to the lexicon of decorative
had seen made in this form (there are other forms knotting. Maybe you also will invent a unique piece,
of nine-bight mats) – it turned out that he had made whether by accident or deliberate action!
