Netted Pointed Lace from Tatting and Netting

The photo and the instructions did not match well for the half circle called Netted Pointed Lace found on page 115 of Tatting and Netting. The instructions said to begin with 21 loops, while the photo shows only 11. I began with the number of loops the instructions said, and thereby ended up with 6 points rather than the 4 points shown in the book.

 I like the look of the one I made more than the one in the book.  It does not look so tight and pulled.
