This may look the same as other practice strips in the book, but the method is deceptive. This works a curved outer edge instead of a sharp outer point at acute angles, making a softer change of direction.
Work through all four passives to inside edge
The worker pair and the last passive pair are pinned just inside the trail line with a temporary pin. Both of them are on the other side of the pin to the other 3 passive pairs.
Lay the worker pair to one side to wait.
Put a twist on the passive pair next to the worker pair and work through the three remaining passive pairs to the outer edge, work the pin.
Work back through 3 passive pairs. Lay the current worker pair to one side to wait..
The last passive pair becomes a new worker pair. This pair does not have a twist added. Work back through the remaining 2 passive pairs to the outside edge, work the pin.
Work back through 2 passive pairs, work through the 1 waiting passive pair.
With only the original worker pair still laid to one side, remove the temporary pin and make the sewing with the current worker pair.
Take the original worker pair and work back CTC through all four passive pairs to the outside pin.
