3068. All strands are moved to the right in ac~ordance with the

4 tabulated directions.

3069. All strands are moved to the right on a four-space diagram.

The result resembles a cable-laid rope.

3070. This is ordinary SQUARE SINNET '#: 300 I made on the table.

This seems to be a quicker method than the ordinary way and with

practice might prove even faster than the Captain Charles W. Smith

JoGS method ('#: 3018). After a little experience the operator will be able
, to move opposite strands simultaneously; two strands (1-3. 3-1) are

moved together, then 2-4, 4-2. Even-numbered strands, as usual, go

to the left and odd strands to right.

3071, 3072. FLAT CHISEL-EDGED SINNETS. These are quite hand-

some and may be made wider if desired. Many of the sinnets that are

shown here lend themselves to amplification .

The sinnets on the next page, being four-sided, are not limited to

edges rotating in the same direction, or to sides with an odd number

~072. of parts. Odd numbers move to the right and even numbers to the

left as usual.
