Materials: 25 cm circum mari, wrapped in pink

Pearl Cotton #5 in maroon and ecru

Marking thread in metallic silver

Prepare an 8-Combination Division using maroon pearl cotton



CP02
Eight triangles will be formed around the ball.  Measure from a corner of the triangle to the intersection of the marking threads in the middle of the triangle.  Place a pin on the marking line 2/3 of the distance from the corner of the triangle to the intersection.  Repeat in the other 2 corners of the triangle.  Mark all the triangles in this way.
CP02
To make the pattern you will alternate between stitching around all the triangles and then stitching around all of the squares.  Begin by stitching 4 rows around the outside of the pins to form a triangle using pearl cotton 814.  Stitch each row next to the previous row working away from the center of the triangle.   Stitch 4 rows of 814 around the remaining seven triangles.  Remove the pins.



CP02 Squares are formed by stitching inside the triangles.  Begin stitching the squares by connecting the corners of four triangles.  Stitch inside the corner as close to the corner as possible.  Stitch 4 rows using ecru around the square.  Stitch each row next to the previous row working toward the center of the triangle.

Stitch 4 rows of ecru around the remaining 5 squares. Stitch 4 rows of 814 around each triangle. Stitch 4 rows of ecru around the squares. Stitch 4 rows of 814 around the triangles. Stitch 6 rows of ecru around the squares. Stitch 4 rows of 814 around the triangles. Finish by stitching 2 rows of ecru around the triangles.
