Illustration E—Center.Thread needle with yarn for center. Fasten at center of wrong side of daisy as for embroidery. The side of daisy toward you is the wrong side. Insert needle under 4 petals, draw yarn through tightly; bring yarn back over the last 3 of these 4 petals, insert needle under these 3 petals and 1 more making 4 petals in all; draw yarn through, continue to bring yarn back over 3 petals and draw it under 4 petals each time until you have made 13 stitches. Be sure there are 13, otherwise your center will not be complete. As the weaving stitches are worked, be careful to carry around the starting yarn end of Daisy, taking each weaving stitch over this end for at least 10 stitches so as to fasten it securely. This is particularly necessary with all the cotton threads. Fasten yarn on wrong side. Cut off all ends close to center.
Turn knob in opposite direction to draw in spokes and release daisy.
Illustration F.Right side of complete daisy.
