Mexican Wheel
Directions for the Mexican WheelPlace the threads in position as stamped, A to B, and bring together in the center with a knot.

Begin the blocks by weaving over one thread C and under the other D, then back again over first thread C until a block is completed. Then make block on outer row E to F, then back again to block on inner row until both rows of blocks are completed. Fasten off and buttonhole around the square and cut away the linen.
