Practice Matters
The second fingertip holds a break at the side, locating
The second fingertip holds a break at the side, locating the cut, or separating the two packets that are to be reversed. See Fig. 52. Now, by squeezing the under packet between the second finger and palm and pressing the upper packet with the thumb at one end against the little finger at the other end, it will be found that the two packets can be moved independently.
To reverse their positions, hold the upper packet firmly
To reverse their positions, hold the upper packet firmly by pressing with the thumb, open the two packets at the break and draw out the under packet with the second and third fingers, the second finger pulling down and third finger pressing up, until the inner side of the under packet just clears the outside of the upper packet. See FIG 52 Fig. 53. Then press the lower packet up and over on top.
