VIII. The Dog Dragging the Sled 

 gi'mtg uniaktoaq (Barrow and Mackenzie) 



Position 1. 



With the back of the right index from the proximal side take up the opposite 

 palmar string, as in Opening A. 



Fig. 10 



With the left index similarly take up the opposite palmar string, but outside 

 the right index loop where it passes between that index and the right little 

 finger. 



Proceed exactly as in "the two brown bears," save that with the right little 

 finger you push back the distal ulnar right thumb string, instead of the proximal, 

 as in the left hand. 



Fig. 11 



At the end you have "the dog" on the left and "the sled" on the right. 

 Drop the right little finger loop, and untangle the knots near the right hand. 

 The "dog" goes off to the left, leaving a knot near the right hand, its fallen 

 master.
