If care is not taken to preserve the relative heights of different 
figures which make up the decoration of two kinds of vertical stripes 
on the same basket the frequent result is that the stripes which are

ornamented with figures a little shorter or taller than those introduced 
in the majority have the appearance of being unfinished at the rim, 
since because of different spacing there is room at the 
last for only incomplete elements. This may be seen in 
Figure 82. 
Mistakes in imbrication made in the pattern itself are 
sometimes responsible for a complete change in the deco- 
rative scheme and it is quite probable that in this way 
new ideas occasionally present themselves to the artist. 
In Figure 83 a mistake made in the eighth coil led to the 
substitution of a single column of long rectangles for the 
divided rectangles of the lower coils. 
The error made in the first stripe in Figure 84 has been 
rectified by the artist in succeeding stripes, showing that 
she had definite ideas, and that the omission of certain 
stitches in the first stripe was detected. 
There are two kinds of vertical stripes on the long sides 
of the basket sketched in Figure 85. That lettered b de- 
termines the height of the basket. The slipped diagonals 
of a are adjusted to this. The basket was begun, as is 
usually the case, at one corner. The stripe shown in 
Figure 85, 6, was the first one started and is at one end
