right-hand scale and the pair of Es
added in the previous step.

Weave and close an A through
a new scale and the central
pair of Es. Make sure that the convex
side of the scale is at the front of the
structure like the other two scales.

Weave and close a B through
the two As added in the
previous steps. This B will sit on top
of the pair of Es but will not pass
through them.

Weave and close two Cs
around the B added in the
previous step.

Weave and close two Cs
around the two Cs added in
the previous step. Turn the structure

Weave and close a D through
both As and the two Cs sitting
in between the two As.

22


Turn the structure back over
to the front side (scales are
now in the convex position). Weave
and close two Cs through the two Cs
sitting in between the two scales.
