Add extra marking lines as shown in pink dotted lines in diagram to the left. Continue with invisible marking, using thread to match mari wrap. The extra jiwari create off-set pentagons as shown

Stitch over C10 marking lines in the off-set pentagons with teal pearl cotton. Tack at pole with 1 stitch of sewing thread in teal. Using teal pearl cotton, stitch the zig-zag shown in green in diagram to the left. The inner point shown by dot is equidistant from C10 marking lines (A=A) and 1/3 of the distance between off-set pentagon & pole (B=2B). Connect opposite points (dot to dot) around pole using Matsuba kagari with teal pearl cotton by passing thread under the pole to prevent a large buildup of thread. Repeat in each pentagon.

	In the triangles formed by the extra jiwari at the corners of the C10 pentagons, divide each side (A-B, B-C and C-A) into four equal segments as shown in diagram to the left. Connect the points using double strand of pink pearl cotton. Tack intersections with 3 small stitches of teal pearl cotton. Repeat in each triangle.
