Copyright (c) 1994 Timothy J. Mitchell.

This sheet may be reproduced and reprinted as long as the author is credited, and no fee is charged.

NOTES:

1. Examination of the existing stitches shows that each stitch was done twice (see B above)

1. e. brick stitch. I have graphed the pattern showing one pass per stitch, in the interest of clarity, and because the pattern can be stitch ed either way.

2.    The bag is approximately 10" by 10" and is sąuare.
