The Breast Bone and Ribs of a Caribou 
(Barrow to Coronation Gulf)

 

 

 

 

 

 

1.  Position 1. 

2.  3 picks up palmar string and allows it to slide to base of 3. (fig. 156a). R2 picks up the L2 palmar string while R4 picks up the L4 palmar string (fig. 156b). L2 and L4, through the R2 and R4 loops, respectively, pick up the R2 and R4 palmar strings (fig. 156c).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

3.  1 picks up up 2n (fig. 156d). Navajo 1 loops.

 

 

 

 

4.  Examine the strings passing from between L2 and L3 to between R2 and R3. One of the strings passes in front of the other (nearer the body) at point "X" (fig. 156e). Pick up both sides of that string with 1 and Navajo the 1 loops (fig. 156e). Pick up the remaining string passing from between L2 and L3 to between R2 and R3 with 1 and Navajo the 1 loops. 

 

 

 

5.  Repeat the procedure in step 4 first for the strings passing between 3 and 4 and then for the strings passing between 4 and 5. 5 distally removes the 1 loop (fig. 156f - steps A and B). 

 

 

 

 

6.  Pick up the loose TV string on the near side of the figure (marked "X" in fig. 156g) with the teeth and extend forming The Breast Bone and Ribs of a Caribou (fig. 156h).  


7.  To recover the loop without tangling, release the mouth string and the distal 5 loop and extend.
