| The Scapulae or The Head of the
Caribou (Alaska to Coronation Gulf) 1. Make The Gullet. 2. Drop 2 loops (fig. 49a - A). Remove 1 loop. Rotate it one half-turn toward you and replace on 1 (fig 49a - B).
3. Share 1 loops: proximally transfer R1 loop to L1 (fig. 49b - A and B), then proximally insert R1 into both L1 loops (fig. 49c) and return to position.
4. Pass 1 away, close to its own hand, and proximally pick up 5f under 5n (fig. 49d - step A). Navajo the two proximal 1 loops over the distal loop (fig. 49d - step B).
5. Two strings loop around 1n, one on each side From the far side, with fingers pointing towards the center of the figure, insert 2 and 3 between the near and far strings of these loops and catch between their fingertips the lower horizontal string passing between the loops. Place the string on the back of 2 and return through the loops (fig. 49e).
6. Widely separate 1 and 2 to complete the figure (fig.
49f). Notes: At the MacKenzie River The Scapulae was converted to The Little Finger by grasping the 1f strings in one hand, the 2n strings in the other, and separating the hands. Index Next Figure Previous Figure
