STEP FIVE: we have just finished making three loops but, as you can see in the photo, the crosses in the loops form a new set of Xs. The process now starts again. Pass your needle up and under the two threads of the first X. Continue forming loops on the Xs. The card is only pierced at the bottom and top of the work.
