next purl of the middle circle, and repeat in rounds. 3rd round:
Fasten the cotton on the middle purl of the first circle of the
preceding round, * work at a short distance 8 double divided by 1
purl, join the stitches into a circle, fasten the cotton at the same
distance on to the middle purl of the next circle of the preceding
