1. Opening A.
2. Insert 2 distally into 5 loop. 2 hooks down 2f and 5n, and pulls these strings toward the body until proximally entering 1 loop.
3. 2 hooks up 1n and returns with it through 5 loop.
4. 1 rotates toward the center and down, and points away from the body under all strings. 1 picks up 5f and returns with it through the 1 loop.
5. 1 hooks down TV 2n through the 1 loop.
6. 1 passes under all strings, and enters distally 5 loop. 1 picks up 5n and draw it back through the original 1 loop. Keep 1 held down and pointing away from the body.
7. A loop surrounds 1 loop. Rotate 1 so that 1 picks up the far string of this loop and draws it back through the 1 loop, which slips off.
8. Release 2 loops. Extend so that strings part in the center.
Two caribou calves are formed, one on each side, with their backs turned to one another.
