Vous avez deux manières

de commencer/

You have two ways to begin.

Méthode/Method 1

A. Mettre la ficelle en boucle,

avec les ficelle croisées sur G5-D3

(G5l-D3v passant par-dessus G5v-D3l).

Put the loop with the strings crossed

on L5-R3.

(L5f-R3n passing above L5n-R3f)

B. G1 prend par en-bas G5l.

L1 picks up L5f.

Ou/Or

Méthode/Method 2

 A. Mettre la ficelle en boucle

sur la G1, G5 et D3.

Put the loop on L1, L5 and R3.

Puis/Then

 A. G2 relève par en-haut G5v-D3l.

L2 hooks up L5n-R3f.

B. D1 tire vers le bas, sur la

ficelle G2v-G5v (G5l méthode 2).

L1 pull down the L2n-L5n string,

(L5f method 2)

C. D1 et D5 prennent par

en-bas G1l-G5l.

(G5v méthode 2)

R1 and R5 pick up L1f-L5f.

(L5n method 2)

D. Si vous avez choisi la

méthode 2, vous devez

décroiser la boucle G5, en

la retirant de G5, et en 

réintroduisant G5 vers vous

dans son ancienne boucle.

If you choosed the method 2,

you need to uncross the L5 loop,

removing it from L5 loop and

introduicing L5 toward you

in its former loop.

Three players 

A, B and C

I wrote hand but

the players use only 2

A. With 2 hook down the loop

so you get a triangle.

The top is on the left.

B. Then, the player A holding

the triangle's top release

the loop, and make the base

with one hand,

 while the

two other players B and C make

the top, with one hand.

You get a triangle.

The top is on the right.

C. Then the players move

their hands:

The player A holding the base,

put his right hand on the

base's middle while,

the player B on his right put

his left hand on the right's

end base, and his right hand

on the side's middle, while

the player C on his right put

his right hand on the other

side's middle.

D. The player A:

his left hand with the

string touch the triangle's

side at his right.

The player B with his

right hand take this string

and hold it with his string.

The player A hold one string

with his right hand.

The player B: 

his left hand with the

string touch the string holding

by the player C's right hand.

The player C with his

right hand take this string

and hold it with his string. 

The player B hold one string

with his right hand.

The player C:

his left hand with the

string touch the string holding

by the player A's right hand.

The player A with his

right hand take this string

and hold it with his string. 

The player C hold one string

with his right hand.

E. You have a double triangle.

All the players hold the

corners with two hands.

F. Then all the players with

theirs right hands push one

 side's string to form a triangle.

You have a simple triangle

with three triangle around it.

G. Then, all the players push

these string into the

triangle's middle.

H. Then again outside to get

bigger triangles.

I. Then extend more and get

a three-pointed star.

J. The player B: his right hand

with his string move to

player C's right hand.

The player C: his right hand

with his string move to

player A's right hand.

The player A: his right hand

with his string move to

player B's right hand.

K. Now move the left hands

with theirs strings 

outside to get again the

double triangles.

L. Then all the players with

theirs right hands push one

 side's string to form a triangle.

You have a simple triangle

with three triangle around it.

   A. Opening A.

   B. 5 picks up 2f.

   C. 1 picks up 2n.

   D. 1 picks up lower 5n.

        You have three loops on 1,
        two on 5.
        2 has a dorsal string.

   E. Release 5.

   F. 5, over 2f, picks up double 1f.

   G. Release 1.

   H. 1, over 2, picks up double 5n.

    I. Release 2.
       Extend.

   J. 3 enters into the far triangle
       and 2 enters into the near
       triangle...
       These two fingers come out
       again throught the farest
       triangle. Extend.

  K. L1 removes, from below,
       the R1 loops.

            Qui a inventé l´avion? C´est Clément Ader!
           En 1890, son appareil vole sur 50 m de distance.
           Son avion était censé ressembler à une chauve-souris.
           Le précurseur de l´aviation avait obtenu de l´argent
           de l´armée pour ses expériences.

           Mais ce sont les frères Wright qui ont réussi
           en 1903 à voler sur 260 mètres de distance.
           Et en 1905, ils parcourirent 38km....

           En 1909, Blériot traversa la manche.

           La guerre 14-18 enverra beaucoup de
           pilotes à la mort. Du fait de la guerre,
           bien sûr, mais aussi à cause des appareils,
           pas encore si sûrs.
 
 
 
 
 

   A. Premier Berceau.
