Comments: Did two full repeats of pattern across, and worked rows 1-44 twice.  The photo in the book depicts more than two repeats lengthwise.  If I were using this as a border pattern of only one repeat lengthwise, I would perhaps start with row 37-44, work through the pattern to row 43 in order to frame the “eagles” within the “zigzag.”  That’s a matter of choice, of course.

The fabric is very dense, and needs good blocking to see the pattern. Also, higher contrast colors may be a better choice.
